Description
The Armament Technology Facility is a 52,000 square foot, secure and environmentally-safe, integrated small arms and cannon caliber design and evaluation facility. The ATF collocates simulation modeling, design, validation, and diagnostic engineering with the capability to immediately conduct confirmation experimental firings of interior and exterior ballistics. This concurrent engineering facility supports multi-service infantry, air defense, aircraft and combat vehicle armament systems, and is available to government and private industry. It has four weapons validation bays with an environmental chamber capable of weather conditions between -65°F and +165°F; two indoor ranges, one 100-meter range, one 300-meter range. The latter range can accommodate a Bradley Fighting Vehicle System firing its primary armament, or an Abrams tank firing its secondary armament.
