Quick Summary
The Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD), under the Department of the Navy, has issued a Combined Synopsis/Solicitation (N0017826Q6740) for the Tsunami 24 Upgrade.

Onsite support for installation, functionality verification, and an overview of changes is required.
- Phase Two (Hardware & Software Update): Update the Unmanning Kit on the Tsunami 24 to an upgraded version, including a new OnLogic Karbon 804 Vehicle Computer, to simplify system architecture and ensure compatibility with current Navy purchases and future software releases. This phase also includes installing the June Tsunami software release and updating the original training material package. Onsite support for hardware/software upgrade and training on implemented changes is required.
