The Phoenix terminal program was awarded as a "firm fixed price contract". It covers the initial tri-band effort and the integrated Ka-band upgrade. This contract provides for a "Block 1A" tri-band Phoenix terminal to be delivered nine months from the award date and a "Block 1B" Phoenix terminal in eighteen months. The difference between the Block 1A and 1B terminals is that the Block 1B terminal will have the integrated Ka-band upgrade in addition to the C-, X- and Ku-band. This will make the Phoenix terminal a true "Quad-band" satellite terminal.

Nine terminals will be bought in fiscal year 2003. All nine terminals will be used for initial developmental testing and logistics/maintenance demonstrations. At the end of the nine months (January/February 2004), six of these terminals (Block 1A) will be sent to the First Unit Equipped which currently is the 112th Signal Battalion at Fort Bragg to begin the operational test. The FUE will be used to conduct the Limited User Test which will take approximately two to three months.

The remaining three terminals will be used to conduct additional developmental testing for three to four months and then will be upgraded to Ka-band. Ka-band developmental testing will be conducted prior to a second Ka-band operational test at the end of the eighteen month delivery date (Oct. 4).

According to the current contract, the next order for terminals will deliver six more Block 1A terminals. All terminals thereafter will be Block 1B. All Block 1A terminals will be brought up to Block 1B standards.
