Located at Redstone Arsenal, Alabama, the Maintenance Operations Procedures and Prototype (MOPP) Facility, also known as the MOPP Shop, concentrates on modifying, updating, and resetting missile systems, but also develops actionable solutions in other critical areas. For example, the Redstone Arsenal MOPP Facility was instrumental in adapting the Army Avenger air defense system’s M3P .50 caliber machine gun for use on the OH-58D Kiowa Warrior helicopters in Iraq and Afghanistan. This substitution was needed because the previous OH-58D machine gun was very unreliable and inadequate, unsuitable for the Kiowa helicopters’ scouting missions.
The MOPP Facility makes it possible for soldiers to troubleshoot and repair missile components in the field, which greatly increases missile availability and reduces cost. LogiCore employees, along with other government and contractors, evaluate and repair the Automated Test Equipment (ATE) as part of the U.S. Army Test Program Set (TPS) used in the field to troubleshoot and repair missile components. The TPS consists of the particular software, hardware, and documentation that are used with computer controlled test equipment to detect and isolate failures within a unit under test.
Typically located in shelter vans, ATE such as Integrated Family of Test Equipment (IFTE) are shipped to Redstone Arsenal from around the world, and our employees conduct numerous tests of the automated test equipment, which is used in the maintenance and support of Army materiel and for conducting maintenance and repair. The shelters are then shipped back to the gaining unit and our employees perform on-site logistics and maintenance support at the unit location to ensure 100 percent operational availability.
“LogiCore plays an important role in supporting the Warfighter and we are thankful for the opportunity to demonstrate the full extent of our knowledge and expertise in supporting the MOPP Facility, as well as our in-depth understanding of the customer needs and how to resolve them,” said Miguel Delgadillo, an Analyst for LogiCore.
