The purpose of this sources sought synopsis is to gain knowledge of commercially available products that may be of interest to the United States Coast Guard (USCG). BACKGROUND: The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG/CG) currently operates thirteen HC-144A Maritime Patrol Aircraft each powered by two CT7-9C3 turboprop engines which use the model 14RF-37 Propeller assembly. The aircraft is manufactured by AIRBUS MILITARY (formerly EADS CASA) in Seville, Spain. The model 14RF-37 Propeller assemblies are manufactured by Hamilton Sundstrand based out of Windsor locks CT, USA. These aircraft are procured under the authority of the Coast Guard Aviation Program Management Office. While the base CASA CN-235-300M aircraft provides the foundation for the Coast Guard HC-144A, changes to base aircraft configuration and the addition of supplementary systems have been combined resulting in a CG01 version of the CN-235-300M. The end state for the fleet size is still under review but could include as many as 36 assets. The projected number of Coast Guard assets over the next five years includes up to twenty operational HC-144A aircraft with each averaging 1200 flight hours annually.
