16 -- MULTIMODE RADAR SYSTEM, AIR-TO-AIR & AIR-TO-GROUND POC Contact, Philip Plotkin, Phone (703)604-2968 The Naval Air Systems Command seeks information on the availability of Military and Commercial Off-the-Shelf (OTS) radar systems, or a radar system with minor modification(s) that will meet the following minimum requirements: Air-to-Air, (a) Pulse Search and Track, (b) Pulse Doppler all-aspect look-up and look-down search and track in clutter, (c) Range While Search (30 NM cumulative R90 co-altitude detection range against a 2 sqm target), (d) Single Target Track (85% of Range While Search detection range), (e) Air Combat Maneuvering (i.e., out to 10 nm auto acquisition with slewable window), (f) Weather Avoidance to allow the pilot to circumvent adverse weather (i.e., thunderstorms); Air-to-Ground, (a) Full performance up to +/- 60 degrees about the aircraft ADL, (b) Maps out to 80 nm, (c) Real Beam Ground Map with a beamwidth not greater than 3.5 degrees (e.g., azimuth resolution), (d) Range resolution of 200 ft for lower range scales; General, (a) MTBF not less than 100 hours, (b) Weight, volume and cooling compatible with business jet aircraft, (c) Nose mounted configuration, (d) interface with multifunction display(s), hand control unit and strap down inertial navigation system with an imbedded global positioning system. System configurations which are fairly self contained (with the exception of an inertial, controls and displays) with minimal external avionic interfaces are of interest. Those systems which rely on significant external avionics support (e.g., mission computer) need to identify the extent of reliance neccessary. Identify modifications, if required, for off-the-shelf radar systems. Identify installation requirements (e.g., power, cooling, mounting). The following information is requested for those radar systems meeting the above listed requirements: (a) What is production status?; (b) MTBF, Weight, Volume, Prime Power & Cooling per system and component; (c) Latest software version, detailed mode and installed system performance (e.g., detection and track ranges, coverages & limits, receiver dynamic range, sidelobes); (d) List users (i.e., DoD, Commercial, FMS), past/current platforms; (e) System nomenclature; (f) Nomenclature per component (including where appropriate, manufacturer, model, part number, national stock number); (g) Interface control information which describes the integration of the components and necessary supporting avionics and multiplex data network to a sufficient level to identify system integration complexity; (h) Radar system specification; (i) Is radar system FAA certified?; (j) Response should include technical capabilities publications applicable to the identified radars (including brochures, catalogues, pictures, design and performance data). Indicate all proprietary information. Prospective sources are requested to submit their response within thirty days of publication of this notice to Commander, Naval Air Systems Command (Code AIR-2.5.1.2), 1421 Jefferson Davis Highway, Arlington, VA 22243-5120 Attn: Philip Plotkin FAX (703) 604-2968. This announcement is a request for information only, not a request for proposal, and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. - NAVAIR Synopsis No. 60007-95. (0030)
