- The Broad Area Maritime Surveillance (BAMS) Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) Program is making available for industry comment a draft Request For Proposal (RFP) Sections A-K. The objective of posting this document is to solicit feedback on the program's goals, objectives, structure, requirements and feasibility prior to issuance of the formal RFP from our Industry partners. The RFP is anticipated to be released in January 2007. The Government does not intend to respond to comments received nor to individual industry questions. Comments may or may not be incorporated into a future release of the subject document. Comments and recommendations are requested to be submitted at the earliest possible time. The Government will accept comments up to the time of final RFP issuance. The BAMS UAS will provide a persistent Maritime Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) data collection and dissemination capability to the fleet. The BAMS UAS will deliver capability enabling the Maritime Patrol and Reconnaissance Force (MPRF) to meet the Navy's maritime ISR requirements. BAMS UAS full operational capability will provide for up to five simultaneous orbits worldwide. Initial Operational Capability (IOC) for the BAMS UAS is defined as one base unit with sufficient assets, technical data, training systems, and enough spares and support equipment to operationally support one persistent ISR orbit and is a program threshold requirement in FY14 with an objective date of FY13. At IOC, the BAMS UAS missions will include, but are not limited to, maritime surveillance, collection of enemy order of battle information, battle damage assessment, port surveillance, communication relay, and support of the following missions - maritime interdiction, surface warfare, battlespace management, and targeting for maritime and littoral strike missions.
