Quick Summary

The Army Contracting Command - Detroit Arsenal (ACC-DTA) is soliciting a Request for Prototype Proposal (RPP) for Mobile Tactical Cannon (MTC) solutions. This opportunity seeks mature and available wheeled MTC systems for prototype manufacturing, integration, testing, and Soldier evaluation, with the goal of replacing M777 towed artillery systems. The Government intends to award a Fixed Price Other Transaction Authority (OTA) Agreement. Proposals are due April 23, 2026, at 4:00 PM ET.

Purpose & Scope

This RPP, issued under 10 U.S.C. § 4022, aims to solicit proposals for initial modification, testing, and experimentation of mature and available wheeled MTC systems. The objective is to assess their suitability to replace M777 towed artillery and integrate into the Army's field artillery modernization strategy, gathering Soldier feedback and assessing integration needs with the Army's fires network. Prototype success is measured by mission viability with Soldiers, cyber resilience, a viable path to U.S. Army supportability, and a path to Full Material Release (FMR).

Key Requirements & Deliverables

  • Proposals for mature and available wheeled MTC systems capable of firing 155mm class artillery ammunition, compatible with current US-inventory ammunition.
  • Address cybersecurity controls, production onshoring, and supply chain resiliency.
  • Delivery of technical data and computer software with specified rights.
  • Deliverables include six (6) prototype MTC systems, up to 12 additional optional systems, and four (4) system trainers, with associated delivery timelines and fixed prices for funded milestones.
  • Contractors must support Government testing and evaluation, provide a System Support Package (SSP), and ensure vehicles are Fully Mission Capable (FMC).

Contract Details

  • Type: Fixed Price Other Transaction Authority (OTA) Agreement.
  • Anticipated Award: One (1) Prototype Project Agreement (PPA), with the possibility of more or none.
  • Follow-on Production: Anticipated for successful prototypes without further competition (10 USC § 4022(f)).
  • Product Service Code: 2355 (Combat, Assault, And Tactical Vehicles, Wheeled).

Submission & Evaluation

  • Proposal Submission Deadline: April 23, 2026, 4:00 PM ET, via PIEE.
  • Questions Due: March 18, 2026, 4:00 PM ET.
  • Evaluation Factors: Technical Performance & Maturity, U.S. Integration, Delivery Schedule, and As-built Production Unit Cost.

Eligibility & Set-Aside

  • Set-Aside: None specified.
  • Offerors must comply with 10 U.S.C. § 4022(d) and cannot be owned, operated, or controlled by a state sponsor of terrorism.
