- Description
- The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), Patuxent River, MD, intends to compete and award a contract for hardware and software design and testing requirements to mature the development of the Advanced Weapon Agnostic Radio Enhancement (AWARE) Advanced Tactical Data Link (ATDL). From this point forward to segregate the program from AWARE, the effort will be titled �IRiS WDL�. The scope of this contract is to mature the integrated three-mode software defined radio, providing Link 16, ATDL and Beyond Line of Sight (BLOS) functions, along with embedded encryption, into a single module to replace the current Link 16 weapon data links used by the Navy. The Government intends for the replacement radio to reduce size, thermal production, and improved datalink performance.� This includes any and all support electronics, software, firmware and hardware required for the Government to complete check out and test of the WDL, and to produce a design specification for future procurement. The speed to production of the WDL as well as environmental qualifications are key factors of the development effort.� This effort will include initial production of the WDL.� The module Interface Control Document (ICD) will remain platform and weapon system agnostic, for a universal solution that easily integrates into systems across the Department of Defense (DoD) portfolio. GENERAL INFORMATION:� The Government seeks offerors with knowledge, experience and technical data necessary to meet the above requirements as well as newly proven technological approaches to the problem. Responsible, interested parties are encouraged to identify their interest and capability by responding to this notice.� Send information to Erica.Keller@navy.mil and Jessica.Blackwell@navy.mil.� The Government will not pay for any responses received.� There are no commitments by the Government to issue any solicitations, make an award or awards, or to be responsible for any monies expended by any interested parties before award of a contract for the efforts mentioned above.� Information provided herein is subject to change and in no way binds the Government to solicit for or award a contract.� No telephone responses will be accepted.�
