The U.S. Army seeks prospective sources to submit technical concepts for gathering meteorological data for use by the Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS). Measurements must be taken in the course of a fire mission and not require any operator involvement in the process. The concepts/devices must provide launch area wind speed and wind direction at 100 meters (+/- 20 meters) above the launcher. The concepts/devices must be capable of measuring wind speed down to 2 meters/second with an accuracy of +/- 1 meter/ second. The time required to gather the data is limited to 10 seconds. Depending on the implementation, the device may be directly exposed to the environmental effects of rocket blast. Responses must be less than 15 pages and be delivered not later than 12 April 1996. The MLRS prime contractor, Loral Vought Systems, will assist in the review of the responses. (0067)
