When fully deployed, the extended height of the mast shall be no less than 160 inches. When fully contracted, the nesting height of the mast shall be no greater than 41 inches. The mast system shall have a low profile to allow for mounting on an armored ground vehicle. The mounting base for the mast shall have a footprint of not more than 12 inches by 18 inches. The system shall operate off of standard vehicle power. The mast system shall utilize an electric screw-drive mechanism for rapid deployment, which shall take no more than 70 seconds to reach full height. The mast shall be nonrotatable and have precise pointing accuracy. Rotation accuracy (twist) shall be no more than plus or minus one (1) degree. The mast shall accommodate a large payload, up to 200 lbs. The mast system shall be highly ruggedized, meeting performance requirements in winds speeds up to 50 mph. The mast shall not be damaged by wind speeds up to 110 mph. The mast shall incorporate the following safety features: redundant, automatic self locking tube sections, and positive mechanical drive for mast extension and retraction. The mast system shall have a control box which will serve as the primary interface and control point for the operator to raise and lower the mast. The box shall be modular such that it can be mounted inside the armored ground vehicle. The size of the box shall not be greater than 12 inches wide by eight (8) inches deep by four (4) inches high. The control box shall be the main interface point for power from the vehicle, and it shall use military standard connectors. The system shall provide indicators to show the operator when the mast is fully extended or fully nested. The mast system shall also have a handheld remote which will serve as a secondary control mechanism for the operator to raise and lower the mast. The handheld remote shall be small and lightweight such that the operator can hold it in his hands. The size of the handheld remote shall not be greater than five inches wide by five (5) inches high by two (2) inches deep. The handheld remote shall interface to the control box using an interface cable that is at least 15 feet in length. The mast system shall be designed to meet sustained deployment in military environments, tested in accordance with MIL STD 810 Environmental Standards. Specifically, the mast system shall be environmentally hardened to withstand the conditions on an armored vehicle in a battlefield environment, including shock, vibration, temperature, solar radiation, sand and dust, humidity and rain. In particular, it shall operate in a temperature range of minus 30 degrees Celsius to plus 65 degrees Celsius. The mast system shall not cause electromagnetic interfere (EMI) with other vehicle systems. The mast shall be painted a desert tan color. The order will be firm fixed price.
