- Description
- FA8629-11-C-2306. Guardian Angel Program. This is a presolicitation synopsis. The Aeronautical Systems Center (ASC), Special Operations Forces and Personnel Recovery Division, Battlefield Airmen Branch intends to award a contract on a sole source basis to SSK Military Industries, Inc., to supply Cybernetic Parachute Release System (CYPRES) Automatic Activation Devices (AADs) for MC-5 parachutes currently used by Air Combat Command (ACC). This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. The CYPRES AAD is used to open the reserve parachute automatically below a preset altitude when it detects that the user's descent exceeds the preset activation speed. The Government intends to award the effort pursuant to the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1, since SSK Military Industries, Inc., is the only firm that currently has the capability to supply AADs for the MC-5 parachute.
