The DT-705A is the only sensor that fits the form, fit, and function requirements of the existing platform infrastructure. FSI is the only vendor that has the rights to the proprietary components of the DT-705A sensor assembly and is therefore the sole source for the DT-705A upgrade task. The DT-705A sensor assembly was manufactured and qualified in accordance with the Critical Item Product Specification (CIPS) for the DT-705A Sensor Assembly, Drawing No. 53711 -7333534L. The task under the resulting contract requires a vendor to upgrade the DT-705A which meets CIPS performance requirements. To upgrade the DT-705A, a vendor must have rights to the proprietary sensors and electronics of the DT-705A sensor assembly which are protected by patents US #5,455,513 and US #5,959,455. Development and issuance of the patents arose from N66604-02-D-0155. FSI is currently the only qualified source for conducting tasks related to the DT-705A sensor assembly components and the calibration and certification thereof due to the proprietary nature of the unique sensors and electronics.
