Weapons Simulator

The United States Air Force is seeking proposals for a virtual weapon simulator to enhance Security Forces training, as mandated by DAFI 36-2646. This combined synopsis/solicitation, FA4830-26-Q-0002, is a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS code 333310. The simulator must provide realistic, interactive weapons training, including 'Shoot/No Shoot' scenarios, to improve marksmanship and tactical skills while conserving live ammunition and range resources. Key requirements include mixed reality combat simulation, AI-powered after-action review, smart AI enemies, head-mounted displays, weapon sensors, weapon simulators with recoil (specifically KWA LM4), KWA LM4 magazines, a command terminal laptop, WiFi capability, and haptic feedback suits for immediate response to simulated enemy fire. The system must accommodate four simultaneous users or single-user training and be able to scan real-life environments for versatile training locations. Proposals are due by March 12, 2026, 1 PM EDT, and questions are due by February 27, 2026, 1 PM EDT. All submissions and inquiries should be directed to Jacob Turner at jacob.turner.28@us.af.mil.

The document AFI36-26462 outlines detailed specifications for various training spaces within Air Force facilities, including Unit Learning Centers, Classrooms, Combatives and Defender Performance Optimization rooms, Vehicle Simulators, and Dye Marking Cartridge Shoothouses. Each section provides descriptions of usage, minimum ceiling heights, room dimensions, and requirements for doors, security, plumbing, HVAC, fire protection, power, lighting, communication (telephone, data, audio/visual), acoustics, furnishings, equipment, and special considerations. The document also references Facility Criteria (FC)4-179-03F for weapons simulators and other Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) documents for specific system requirements. The overall purpose is to standardize and guide the design and outfitting of these critical training environments for military personnel.

The document, FA483025Q0070 Attachment 9, is a Questions & Answers Matrix related to a solicitation for a VR weapons simulator system. The government is seeking a pre-built, off-the-shelf system for simultaneous training of a four-person fire team within an existing shared physical space, supporting free-roaming tactical movement and requiring digital mapping of the training area. While the KWA LM4 gas blowback surrogate rifle is optimal due to its realistic recoil and weight, other equivalent brands are acceptable. The system must support M4A1 and M18 weapons, including transition training between primary and sidearm. Environmental concerns are not anticipated, and facility standards are for informational purposes only. The award will be based on the lowest price technically acceptable, and submission of two distinct technical solutions is permitted.
