- Description
- NA Pursuant to FAR 15.2, this notice is being issued as a Research and Development Information Sought. Contract POC: Marcia N. Tully, Phone: 256-842-7406, email: marcia.tully@redstone.army.mil. The Infrared and Optical Technology Branch, Missile Guidance Directorate of the U. S. Army Aviation and Missile Research, Development, and Engineering Center (AMRDEC) is requesting information regarding technical feasibility of the application of LADAR to active protection systems. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOS ALS. It is part of a technology survey to assist in the planning of possible future programs. Informal or white paper responses are encouraged. The device specifications outlined below are derived from a set of notional system requirements, and be viewe d as performance goals. An effort is underway with the purpose of determining the feasibility of using LADAR technology to form the basis of a practical, wide-field sensor, capable of generating range profiles of incoming projectiles and missiles with suf ficient speed and accuracy so as to enable the precise delivery of a protecting munition. Analyses and tests will be performed to define the type and number of sensors required to meet the following performance objectives: Field of regard -- 75 degrees azimuth, 60 degrees elevation; detection range -- 1-30 meters; range resolution -- 5 centimeters. Tests will also be conducted to determine the potential capacity of the defined LADAR sensor to perform real-time range profile processing in order to classify targets and select optimized aimpoints. Particular targets of interest include RPG-7, RPG-7VR, and TOW. Questions or comments on demonstrated or potentially feasible technologies for this application are invited and should be addressed to the P OC below. Appropriate proprietary claims will be honored and protected to prevent improper disclosure. Responses shall be provided by 15 Jun 03 to U. S. Army Aviation and Missile Command, AMSAM-AC-RD-BB/Marcia Tully, Redstone Arsenal, AL 35898, or via e mail: marcia.tully@redstone.army.mil. Technical questions may be addressed to Mr. R. Earl Morris, Phone (256) 842-9335, FAX (256) 842-2985, EMAIL: earl.morris@rdec.redstone.army.mil.
