Science Applications International Corp. (SAIC) has won a contract to compete for task orders worth up to $93 million supporting Tactical Integrated Threat/Target Training Systems (TTS) for the U.S. Navy’s Adaptive Combat Environment Systems group at Naval Air Station, China Lake, California.

Under the five-year, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract, SAIC will compete with other selected vendors to provide research and development, engineering, integration, testing, cybersecurity, upgrades and sustainment for numerous tactical threat systems to help improve Navy aircrew effectiveness and survivability. 

The Navy expects to complete work on this cost-plus-fixed-fee, firm-fixed-price contract in September 2026.

“This award gives SAIC an opportunity to win specific task orders under the TTS contract to help verify and validate the system capabilities deployed to our Navy,” said Josh Jackson, senior vice president of the Naval Business Unit, SAIC. 

“This will ultimately help us better serve and support the Navy’s current and future range capabilities.”

TTS support includes range data collection and specialized instrumentation for systems under test, data at the edge computing and transfer, and data sorting and analytics in support of system performance analysis. Additional work includes sustainment of unique electronic warfare-centric range capabilities and movement into new technology for the next generation of systems’ performance validation and verification.
