- Description
- IF YOU SUBMITTED INFORMATION, PLEASE DON'T RE-SUBMIT. THIS IS ONLY POSTED TO CORRECT THE SEEKING AGENCY. Sources Sought (REVISION). This is a sources sought synopsis only. The purpose of this sources sought synopsis is to gain knowledge of potential qualified sources. The information submitted in response to this sources sought notice is for planning purposes only. This notice shall not be construed as a request for proposal or quotation and it is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. The Aircraft Survivability Equipment (PM ASE) in lieu of Communications Electronics Research, Development and Engineering Center (CERDEC) was seeking sources and information for a Common Missile Warning System (CMWS), AN/AAR-57(V)8 and AN/AAR-57(V)7 hardware on 19 June 2013. PM ASE is anticipating a limited CMWS systems production program of up to 50 CMWS systems over the next 12-18 months. The CMWS systems shall be installed on rotary and fixed-wing aircraft to detect the launch and flight of Surface-to-Air Missiles (SAMs) and provide audible and visual warnings to the aircrew. The CMWS must be integrated to meet the flight and operational environment requirements of the DOD's rotary wing aircraft such as UH/MH-60. CH/MH-47 & AH-64A/D. No changes to existing configurations will be permitted. System integrity shall be maintained. The CMWS must be integrated to meet the flight and operational environment requirements of fixed-wing aircraft, such as RC-12, C-12 & UC-35. The CMWS includes the Improved Countermeasure Dispenser (ICMD) that activates expendables to provide the missile countermeasures. The ICMD shall have the capability to monitor munitions firings upon a system or manual cue. The ICMD is capable of being loaded with, and dispensing three or more types of expendables, such as flares, chaff and smoke/aerosols. The CMWS shall be composed of the following components; an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) supporting up to 6 Electro Optical Missile Sensors (EOMS) and up to 4 ICMDs where an ICMD is defined as 1 sequencer and 2 smart dispenser payload modules. The CMWS shall maintain established interfaces with the UH/MH/HH-60, CH/MH-47, AH-64, RC/UC/C-12 and UC-35 aircrafts and do not require unique configurations, or software loads, for installation on aircraft of the same type. The systems must be fully compatible and interoperable with existing systems without any changes to system configurations. Interested sources must be able to provide Form, Fit and Functional equivalent Shop Replaceable Units (SRU) spares for the AN/AAR-57's already fielded to the DOD. The Government does not possess a verified and validated Technical Data Package for the AN/AAR-57, suitable for competition at this time. Any interested sources shall be required to provide written details of their experience with the similar systems technology, details of complex equivalent production capabilities meeting that of the anticipated quantities.
