Question #3: Subject: Clarification Request Reference: Industry Day Paragraph: Page Question/Comment: Please clarify if “non-gun” (or non-ATF-controlled) training weapons can remain on the system, and if so, is an ATF certification required? Response: “Non-guns” can remain on the system. Marine Corps Order 5530.14A details the requirements for physical security as they relate to weapons (demilitarized or actual live firing weapons). Any weapon (or part of a weapon) that is (or has been) capable of firing a round have storage and security requirements that enclosures do not meet. See question #2 and MCO 5530.14A for further clarification. Question #4: Subject: Clarification Request Reference: PRF Sections 3.1.3.4.9.1.j, 3.1.3.4.9.2.j, and 3.1.3.4.9.3.g Paragraph: Page 16,17 Question/Comment: Please clarify the definition of “weapon position feedback data.” Response: Weapon position feedback data will be removed from these paragraphs since the After Action Review (AAR)/Brief Debrief station does provide for surveillance footage of where the gun is pointed during training. Question #5: Subject: Clarification Request Reference: PRF Section 3.1.3.4.9.4, etc. Paragraph: Page 17 Question/Comment: Please clarify if the customer’s expectation is to have physical training on the DWS weapon.

Question #37: Subject: IA verifications Reference: Attachment 2 2H166 MCAT PRF140035 06Feb15 Paragraph: 4.3.3 IA verifications Page 91 Question/Comment: IA verifications take place during most verification events (Table I), will there be tool/scanner version cutoff dates associated with each event? This would preclude a new release a very short time prior to the scheduled event and ensure there is sufficient time to resolve newly found issues. Response: Yes, there will be a cutoff or "freeze" date for the version of the scan tool to be used. The exact timeframe will be identified as part of the IPT. Question #38: Subject: Viewpoint position references Reference: Attachment 2 2H166 MCAT PRF140035 Appendix A Visual 06Feb15 Paragraph: A.3.1.3.1.13.1 Viewpoint position references – A-I Page 29-30 Question/Comment: The horizontal reference for the Simulated Sensor viewpoints and the Cockpit OTW viewpoints “Aligns with the ownship’s 12 o’clock (i.e. looks aft)”. Please confirm that these are correct. Response: No, the passages asserting that the 12 direction looks aft, found in paragraph A.3.1.3.1.13.1 Viewpoint position references – TABLE A-I, are incorrect. The pertinent passages in the specification have been changed to read as follows: “H: Aligns with the ownship’s 12 (i.e. looks fwd)”. Question #39: Subject: Visual System Accuracy Reference: Attachment 2 MCAT PRF140035 Appendix A Visual 06Feb15 Paragraph: A.3.1.3.1.8.1 Accuracy of distance and depth perception cues for low altitude operations Page 27 Question/Comment: How will this requirement be tested/accepted? In other words, how do we know the human tester can judge distance accurately?
Reference: PRF 3.1.17.3.2 Enclosure/trainer interface Paragraph: The MCAT device and its enclosure shall: d. Not alter the egress and ingress points Page N/A Question/Comment: Is this statement with reference to the permanent GSS, Pad ingress/Egress or the existing enclosure Ingress / Egress? Response: “Not alter the egress and ingress points” refers to alteration of pad ingress/egress points. Question #92: Subject: Reference: PRF 3.1.17.3.2 Enclosure/trainer interface Paragraph: The MCAT device and its enclosure shall: a. Interface with the GFF (concrete pads) IAW Appendix B : f. Not exceed the Camp Pendleton MCAT's length, and height. Page N/A Question/Comment: Is this to mean that the overall interior dimensions of the combination of all units to be installed within the walls of the Camp Pendleton GFF shall not be exceeded? Does this include accessibility areas within the Camp Pendleton permanent GFF? Response: The Camp Pendleton MCAT training device must fit entirely within the walls of the Camp Pendleton GFF. The containerized device, without enclosure, must also not exceed the Camp Pendleton dimensions as identified in 3.1.17.3.2 f. The installation must meet all appropriate codes for accessibility within the GFF. Question #93: Subject:
