  • The "Estimated Days: 360" refers to the deadline for the QTY 2 FAT units to be delivered to the testing facility, as per the PAS "First Article: Due within 360 days of contract award." Government testing/approval is estimated to take 240 days.
  • The Government will perform testing on the QTY 2 FAT samples (cable assemblies 6894510) as per Table II of 5894520. The contractor is responsible for performing testing outlined in Table V (100% testing for every cable) and inspecting the QTY 5 cable segments per Sections 3.4.1.1 through 3.4.1.4.
