- Description
- BACKGROUND: The U.S. Air Force, Air Command (ACC), Langley AFB, Va., is tasked with the requirement to provide radars for use at eleven (11) Tethered Aerostat Radar System (TARS) sites. Currently, we operate a DPS-5 radar at the Cudjoe Key, FL site, and TPS-63 radars at six (6) sites, and a L88-A at the remaining four (4) sites. POTENTIAL NEED: The purpose of this announcement is to identify and locate sources fully capable of providing radars for an upcoming requirement. The proposed system must operate within the 275K and 420K aerostat parameter and not alter airborne characteristics. The system, to include radar and antenna, cannot exceed 1,300 pounds in weight. The system must interface with airborne support equipment currently fielded in the (TARS) network. The radar system must be capable of detecting a 2m2 Swerling Type I target with a noise-limited single scan Pd (Probability of Detection) of not less than 75% within the surveillance volume. The surveillance volume is defined as 10-150 NM, 360 degrees in azimuth, from ground level to 2000 feet above the aerostat's flight altitude. This performance shall apply with the system operating normally and all system losses accounted for including moving target indication (MTI), constant false alarm rate (CFAR) and atmospheric losses due to absorption and lens-effect. We invite all qualified sources to respond to this notice in support of the ACC mission. The latest TARS Radar Statement of Objectives (SOO) is currently posted on the Electronic Posting System (EPS), and we invite all interested contractors to take a look at it. If you are interested and can provide the requirement stated, please respond to the following points of contact. This requirement has been advertised previously and the government did not receive sufficient responses. Therefore, in accordance with FAR 6.302, the government intends to award this requirement on a Sole Source basis if no further responses are received.
