The KE-W A1® or equivalent shall be a ballistic match to the current ballistic solution on the Abrams M1A1. The KE-W A1® or equivalent shall provide defeat capability against an armored vehicle. The KE-W A4® or equivalent shall provide enhanced defeat capability against an armored vehicle with Explosive Reactive Armor (ERA). Requests for the performance specification shall be submitted in writing using AMSTA-AR Form 1350 Technical Data Request Questionnaire (attached) along with a signed DD 2345 Military Critical Technical Data Agreement form and a fully executed Non-Disclosure and Non-Use Agreement (attached).
