- Description
- Appendix A: Cost Table Templates Full DARPA-BAA-10-87 Document The Persistent Close Air Support (PCAS) program will demonstrate a new capability in Close Air Support (CAS) to provide firepower at the fingertips of the ground troops in contact. Key improvements are a positively controlled kill chain, digitally connected equipment for the Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC), and a system growth capable architecture to support both current and future CAS systems. The program goal is to demonstrate the capability for a JTAC to visualize, select and employ weapons at the time of his choosing from an airborne platform. The airborne system then responds autonomously to the JTAC request for CAS weapons delivery. This provides a JTAC the ability to rapidly request and control airborne fire support. The PCAS system will provide the capability to deliver accurate weapons on target(s) within a shortened time limit. Posting Date: September 16, 2010 Deadline for Questions: October 1, 2010 Proposal Due Date: November 2, 2010 In order to be considered, the full proposal (one signed original and four copies, plus two electronic copies on CD-ROMs) must be submitted to DARPA/TTO 3701 North Fairfax Drive, Arlington, VA 22203-1714 (Attn.: BAA-10-87) on or before 3:00 PM EDT November 2, 2010 in order to be considered during the initial round of selections; however, BAA-10-87 will remain open on FedBizOpps 180 days following the original posting date. Proposals may be submitted at any time from issuance of this announcement until the final BAA closing date; however, proposers are warned that the likelihood of funding is greatly reduced for proposals submitted after the initial closing date deadline. Please see the attached DARPA-BAA-10-87 for additional information.
