- Description
- The Federal Integrated Product Team (FIPT) is seeking information from industryon approaches, products and/or standard mobile Very High Frequency (VHF) radiosolutions that are P.25. The radio solution should support simultaneous voiceand data processing requirements through a certified encryption solution thatis High Assurance Internet Protocol Encryptor (HAIPE) Version 3 and supportsAdvanced Encryption Systems (AES) 256 algorithms. The radio must beinteroperable with land-based, sea-based, and air-based platforms leverage HighPerformance Waveforms (HPW). The radio must meet all environmentalrequirements as outlined in MIL-STD-810F and allow for the storage of up to butnot limited to 15 Communications Security (COMSEC) keys. The radio shouldsupport the capability of Over The Air Rekeys (OTAR) and support COMSEC loadingfrom a myriad of devices to include but not limited to KYK-13, KYX-15, and ANCDdevices. The radio terminal must possess an IP-65 or IP-67 rating and allowfor easy change out not to exceed not more than a 5-10 minutes. The radiomust yield a bandwidth uplink/downlink throughput that supports simultaneousdata processing and voice operations. The desired platform should allow forremote log in capabilities and remote destruction capabilities of theInternetwork Operating System (IOS). The radio should be able to support anextension of the radio when in operating environments that do not afford theability to acquire Line of Sight (LOS). Hardware and software designs shouldinclude open architecture Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) andGovernment-Off-The-Shelf capabilities. The VHF radio package should be able toaccelerate all services while converging all IP injections into one uniqueubiquitous network. In addition, it should have the ability to rapidlyintegrate mature advanced technology in focus areas identified in Section 2.0and have the required accreditations from the United States Government and theDepartment of Defense (DoD). The radio package should be ruggedized withminimal requirements to support Size, Weight, and Power (SWAP). In addition,it should operate in austere locations that can get as cold as -32 and +120degree temperatures that must be protected but not limited to rain, dust, sand,and moisture. Interested parties are requested to respond to this RFI with a white paperidentifying their capabilities, to include past relevant experience and anyinformation the interested party deems appropriate to demonstrate theircapability and interest in the contents of this RFI - see attachment fordetails and instructions. Interested parties are welcome to address thecomplete RFI or a portion thereof. Responses and questions shall be submitted via email to the SPAWAR ContractingOfficer Theodore Rivera at theodore.rivera@navy.mil.
