Change History
Terminal Defense Weapon System Coordinator
**Key Changes to Q&A Section:** **New Question Added:** Q1 now asks for clarification on "in real time without latency" – specifically whether this refers to runtime performance during engagement coordination or development/integration timeline reduction. Suggests "minimal added latency" or "latency within acceptable combat-system engagement timeline" as more accurate descriptors. **Questions Renumbered:** Original Q2-Q4 shifted to Q2-Q5 due to new Q1 insertion. Content appears substantially similar, though Q2 (formerly Q1) now appears as a secondary priority. **No substantive answer updates** appear in the visible Q&A – the changes reflect question reordering and addition of clarifying language around latency requirements rather than new answers to previously pending items.
Terminal Defense Weapon System Coordinator
Added 1 new question (Q1) clarifying Phase I evaluation focus: whether TDSWC should prioritize upgrade-containment mechanisms or multi-weapon engagement-coordination behavior. Renumbered subsequent questions (Q2-Q4) accordingly. No answers were updated or newly provided.
Terminal Defense Weapon System Coordinator
Added 3 new Q&As: (1) clarification on weapon-system scope regarding ESSM inclusion, (2) data sources available for AI/ML development, and (3) Government provision of combat-system simulation environment and interface documentation.
