- Description
- U.S. Army RDECOM-Picatinny is announcing a market survey notice for an upgradeto the current Smoke 469B round currently being produced by Saab Bofors Dynamics (SBD), Sweden. The U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) has applied for a Foreign Comparative Test (FCT) project to qualify the enhanced fuze for the 84mm Smoke 469C. This project will integrate, test and evaluate an essential fuze upgrade system to the existing 84 mm Smoke 469B round. The F551 Fuze is designed to replace the FFV957 fuze currently used in the 84mm Smoke 469B round. The 84mm Smoke 469C should produce the same noise level as compared to current configuration since its propulsion system will remain unchanged. This will greatly reduce the risk associated with its development by extensive use of integration of existing qualified MAAWS ammunition components. The Smoke 469B rounds are proprietary to SBD. Since the USG does not have any technical data rights to the Smoke 469B rounds, interested parties should contact the prime contractor, SBD directly.

IT ACTUALLY APPEARED OR REAPPEARED ON THE FEDBIZOPPS SYSTEM ON 12-MAY-2009, BUT REAPPEARED IN THE FTP FEED FOR THIS POSTING DATE.
