These documents are to be utilized in the conduct of a full and open competitive procurement that satisfies the US Army's Life Cycle Contract Services (LCCS) for the Public Use C-12, RC-12 turboprop, and UC-35 jet aircraft for the US Army, US Army Reserves (USAR) and the US Army National Guard (USARNG). This announcement is for a Base year plus four one-year options. No reimbursement shall be made for any costs associated with providing information in response to this RFP or any follow up information requests. The procurement of LCCS services will be for the C-12, RC-12 and UC-35 aircraft, for the United States Army, United States Army Reserves and the United States Army National Guard (USARNG). The LCCS will be for approximately 190 aircraft consisting of C-12, RC-12, and UC-35 aircraft. These aircraft will support the active Army, Army Reserves and the ARNG with movement of essential cargo and personnel to support peacetime and contingency operations from regional conflicts to global war. Additional mission roles of these aircraft include transportation of key command and staff personnel. During contingency operations, the C-12 and UC-35 aircraft contribute to intra-theater transportation requirements and support mobilization and deployment operations. The RC-12 mission is a corps level technical airborne signal intelligence (SIGINT) collection/location system for non-communication (ELINT) and communication (COMINT) intercept real time reporting to the tactical commander. The C-12 aircraft, manufactured by Raytheon Aircraft Company (RAC) (formerly Beech Aircraft Corporation), is a high-performance, fixed-wing, T-tail, pressurized, twin engine turboprop that accommodates places for a pilot, co-pilot, and passengers. The C-12 is powered by two Pratt and Whitney PT6A-41/42/65/67 turbo prop engines. The Armys C-12 aircraft fleet is similar to the Beech King of the A200CT Super King Air (Normal Category) and the RC-12 D/H/K/N/P/Q series aircraft are a derivative of the Beech Model A200CT Super King Air (Restricted Category), operated under FAA Type Certificate A24CE. The RC-12 series aircraft is a Special Electronic Mission Aircraft (SEMA) powered by two Pratt and Whitney PT6A-41/67 turbo prop engines. The UC-35 aircraft, manufactured by Cessna, is a commercial fixed-wing airplane capable of providing medium range transport for Government personnel and equipment. The UC-35 is powered by two Pratt and Whitney JT15D/PW 535 jet engines. The Armys current C-12/RC-12/UC-35 LCCS contract will expire 31 Jan 2010.
