No award is intended as a result of this request. The USG will not pay for information received. Responses to this notice are not offers and cannot be accepted by the USG to form a binding contract. SENTINEL PRODUCTION OVERVIEW: The Enhanced Sentinel is an advanced three-dimensional battlefield X-band, air defense, phased array radar, manned by a crew of two and equipped to support beyond visual range engagements. The Enhanced Sentinel provides air defense and surveillance of forward areas. It provides 360-degree air surveillance and acquisition tracking day or night, in adverse weather conditions, and in battlefield environments of dust, smoke, aerosols, and enemy countermeasures. The Enhanced Sentinel contributes to the digital battlefield by automatically detecting, classifying, identifying, and reporting Cruise Missile (CM), Unmanned Aerial System (UAS), Rotary Wing (RW), and Fixed Wing (FW) threats. For this production effort the contractor shall fabricate ATGs and complete system integration to deliver a quantity of forty-four (44) Enhanced Sentinels conforming to technical performance requirements. The contractor shall also deliver tools, test equipment, associated spares, and other required assets for operation of the Sentinel Radar Systems. This effort shall include the development of a data package consisting of Acceptance Test Procedures (ATPs) and documentation.
