Description: The Natick Contracting Division-Orlando, on behalf of the SUAS PdO, is seeking qualified business candidates that can provide systems and parts (for new and existing systems) to support the full spectrum of SUAS for current and future Warfighter needs. BACKGROUND The Raven (RQ-11B) and Puma - AECV (All Environment Capable Variant) SUAS are managed by the SUAS PdO, Redstone Arsenal, Alabama. The RQ-11B and AECV are Reconnaissance, Surveillance, Targeting, Acquisition, (RSTA) tools. The systems transmit live airborne video images, compass headings and location information to a Ground Control Station (GCS) and to a Laptop Computer. This capability enables operators to navigate, search for targets, recognize terrain, and record all information for analysis. A system generally consists of the following basic components: Unmanned Aircraft (UAs); Ground Control Station (GCS); Electro-Optic/Infrared (EO/IR) Payloads; RSTA Computer Kit and Field Repair Kit. An Initial Spares Package (ISP) is included for operation and support of the basic system components. Current systems fielded are the RQ-11B and the AECV; other systems may be added in the future.
