SOLICITATIONS
UPGRADE AND MAINTENANCE OF THE AIRBORNE ELECTRO-OPTICAL/INFRARED/LASER (AEIL) II SYSTEMS
Notice Date October 26, 2001
Description
The Air Armament Center, 46th Test Wing, is seeking capable and qualified sources to provide Upgrade and Maintenance of the Airborne Electro-Optical/Infrared/Laser (AEIL) II Systems for the Seekers and Sensors Branch (46 TW/TSWI) and Flight Test Division (46 TW/TSI) at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida.
The AEIL II systems are four state-of-the-art airborne platforms that support a variety of multi-spectral instruments; Common Signature Measurement Pod (CSMP) (BASES II), Supersonic Airborne Tri-gimbaled Infrared System (SATIRS), Airborne Seeker Evaluation and Test System (ASETS), and Supersonic Telemetric Airborne Radiometer (STAR) Pod. These systems are used to provide truth and signature data in support of DoD munitions testing. The AEIL II systems collect, condition, digitize, record and/or transmit to the ground, and post-mission process multi-spectral data on selected targets. The requirement is for a 3 year basic with one 2 year option, time and materials contract to provide consultative technical and engineering services to supplement on-site maintenance to include operational guidance, troubleshooting, and repair as well as maintenance and upgrade support at the depot level for the AEIL II systems and sub-systems.
The basic period of performance is anticipated to be 27 March 2002 through 27 March 2005. Potential sources will be screened to ascertain their experience in designing, developing, fabricating, testing, maintaining, and upgrading airborne multispectral instrumentation pods flown on high performance aircraft.
Potential sources will also be screened to ascertain their experience in developing and modifying servo control software and hardware, troubleshooting and repairing VME computer problems with specific experience in MIL-STD-1553 control bus, reflective memory/fiber optics technology, airborne telemetry with remote ground control, accomplishing structural analysis on strength of materials in airborne pods (including at supersonic airspeeds) and Vx Works operating system.
