The F-15E is a two crew member aircraft designed to provide a long range, large payload capability to strike second echelon targets at night and under all weather conditions while retaining the superior theater air defense capability. This announcement is not a request for proposal. The fiscal year (FY) 05 effort of this acquisition will include the fabrication, assembly and delivery to the field of up to two (2) additional F-15E production aircraft as well as associated data and equipment, production- related sustaining, warranty, limited updates to technical orders, and long lead effort for up to four (4) additional F-15E production aircraft. The contract may also contain an option for up to four (4) of the F-15E production aircraft established by the long lead effort in FY05. The capabilities/responsibilities to be addressed by the respondents include the following: (a) engineering and production knowledge and capabilities to fabricate, assemble, and deliver the aforementioned FY05 effort and option; (b) integration capabilities for all systems and subsystems; (c) subcontractor management capabilities, to include the establishment of associate contractor agreements; (d) retrofit/modification capabilities; (e) system engineering and project management capabilities for all systems and subsystems; and (f) total system performance responsibilities for this new F-15E production program.

For the purpose of making affiliation finding ? any business entity, whether organized for profit or not, and any foreign business entity, i.e. any entity located outside the United States, shall be included. The Air Force reserves the right to consider a small business set- aside based on responses hereto. Failure of a firm to provide the above data with its responses to this notice may disqualify the firm from further consideration. The information requested herein is for planning purposes only.
