Description

The Sensor Fuzed Weapon (SFW) United States (US) Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program requires two Production Verification Tests (PVTs). The prime contractor, Textron Defense Systems, is building the CBU-105 (SFW) and is procuring the telemetry kits from LMMFC to support the tests. These tests have already been coordinated with the 708th Test Wing and will be conducted at Eglin AFB, FL in October 2012. As part of the test plan, telemetry data from the Wind Corrected Munitions Dispenser (WCMD) tail is required to be collected and analyzed. In order to collect this data, a telemetry kit needs to be installed on the exterior of the WCMD tail. This telemetry kit will transmit a data stream to a United States Air Force (USAF) ground station. The ground station collects and records the telemetry. The WCMD tail telemetry data will be analyzed to verify that the aircraft passed the proper information to the WCMD tail while performing within the requirements of the WCMD specification. LMMFC is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of the WCMD tail. Textron Defense Systems purchased the WCMD tail design from LMMFC; however, the telemetry kit and data format are still proprietary to LMMFC. Therefore, services are required from LMMFC to perform the data analysis. This effort will use FMS funding and will have a period of performance of approximately three months, from October 2012 through January 2013.
