(McLean, VA., September 30, 2008) -- Alion Science and Technology, an employee-owned technology solutions provider, has won a $37.93 million indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (ID/IQ) contract to provide PC-based, integrated Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) training systems for the Naval Air Warfare Center (NAWC) Training Systems Division in Orlando, FL.
Alion will support the continued development of Mission Rehearsal Tactical Team Trainer (MRT3) technologies for the SH-60B and SH-60F Navy helicopters. The contract calls for upgrades and lifecycle support at ASW training locations worldwide and will allow Alion to continue its integrated computer-based training in the ASW area. The scope of work includes providing an interoperable, distributed, mobile and deployable continuous training capability.
"Alion has been involved with PC-based ASW tactical team training since the inception of MRT3 in 2002," said Dick Brooks, Alion Senior Vice President and Manager of the Distributed Simulation Group. "This vehicle will allow us to continue providing portable, high-fidelity training solutions to the warfighters, allowing them to train as they would fight in an operationally relevant synthetic battlespace."
