- Description
- The Naval Air Systems Command intends to negotiate and award a Delivery Order under an existing Basic Ordering Agreement for the development of a Communications Obsolescence Program Plan for the Block IV Tomahawk Cruise Missile. This effort will include recommendations for potential modifications of the All-Up-Round (AUR) internal and external interfaces that support in-flight messaging via the Tomahawk Strike Network. The effort requires detailed knowledge of AUR systems/subsystems and access to the BLK IV mechanical, electrical and functional interfaces. The systems/subsystems interfaces include weight and balance, guidance and control executive computer control software, satellite data terminal and other avionics components. NAVAIR intends to award this Tomahawk communications sub-system obsolescence Program Plan development effort on a sole source basis to Raytheon Missile Systems, P.O. Box 11337, Bldg 9022 M/S K1, Tucson, AZ 85734-1337. Since 1998, Raytheon has been the sole developer, designer and manufacturer of the BLK IV Tactical Tomahawk Missile. Raytheon solely possesses the current configuration technical data packages for the BLK IV Tomahawk Missile, and currently manages the key requirements, interface, integration and verification documents for the Tomahawk Weapons System. The communications obsolescence effort will require extensive weapons system integration with the BLK IV Tomahawk Missile. The determination of integration complexity associated with candidate hardware obsolescence solutions will require specific engineering design data for the BLK IV mechanical, electrical and functional interfaces. Because detailed knowledge of the BLK IV Tomahawk Missile is required to perform the services and engineering support necessary, Raytheon is the only source capable of accomplishing the integration of this requirement in the required timeframe without significant duplication of cost. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. Businesses interested in subcontracting opportunities may contact Raytheon directly, point of contact is Karen Spencer, (520)663-6934.
