The system must have the below attributes: - Fire resistance/fire proof - Waterproof/Weather proof - Adaptable - Multi-purpose - Clothing: Designed to be worn over flight clothing after ejection/bailout/crash landing, enhance survivability by creating an outside layer of sleeping bag material around the aircrew member.

Dimension specifications attached. - The provided system shall include a minimum one (1) year manufacturer's warranty from the acceptance of the item. -The orange side will be vacuum packed on the outside. -All material must be synthetic. -Must be suitable for up to -40 degrees Fahrenheit. Pants: -Shall be international orange color on the outside, and woodland/multicam on the inside (whichever is cheaper). -Shall have Velcro on the inside of the pants to allow the pants to turn into a half-sleeping bag. -Shall have Velcro on the bottom of the pants to seal in heat and create the �half sleeping-bag� effect. -One size fits all, plus two inches to the length of the pants. Poncho: - Shall be international orange color on the outside, and woodland/multicam on the inside (whichever is cheaper). -One size fits all, minus three inches in width on either side of the poncho. -Poncho should have a �V� shape, tapered at the bottom.
