COMMERCE BUSINESS DAILY ISSUE OF OCTOBER 17,1996 PSA#1702Commander, Naval Air Systems Command (Code 2.0), 1421 Jefferson Davis
Hwy, Arlington, Va 22243-5120 14 -- SUBSONIC SUBSCALE AERIAL TARGET PRESENTATIONS SOL
N00019-97-Q-xxxx DUE 111596 POC Contact, LCDR BROADWELL, Phone
(703)604-0903 The Navy has a requirement for up to twenty (20) subsonic
subscale aerial target vehicle presentations at the Naval Air Warfare
Center, Weapons Division (NAWCD) Sea Range, Point Mugu, CA, to support
three test events in 1998. The first of these test events is scheduled
in Feb 98. Multiple presentations will be required during each test
event. The presentations will consist of flights of air vehicles
configured to simulate specific anti-ship cruise missiles. It is the
Navy's intention to fill this requirement through a solicitation based
on a Statement of Objectives (SOO) and the evaluation of schedule,
technical, cost, and management proposals from industry. The RFP will
be available on or before 12 Nov 96 and will be sent to all who reply
to this announcement. A bidder's conference is planned for 3 Dec 96 to
be hosted by NAWCD at Point Mugu, CA. Some key performance elements
required for these presentations include, but are not limited to: 1)
the ability to fly to a moving endpoint with an accuracy of 75ft (1
sigma). The endpoint is 300ft astern of a ship steaming at 5-10 kts. 2)
executing a repeatable, autonomous evasive maneuver consisting of a
minimum of two cycles of 3g sustained/5g instantaneous excursions in
each of both azimuth and elevation planes beginning at an altitude 26ft
above sea level at a point approximately 4 nautical miles from the
endpoint and ending 6.6ft above sea level at the endpoint, 3)
sustaining a minimum speed of 0.82 Mach at operational altitude, 4)
having a range in excess of 30 nautical miles from launch (air, ship,
or land), 5) having a maximum Radar Cross Section (RCS) of -15dBm2 at
10 Ghz (nose on), 6) having an IR signature of 90 Watts/Steradian max
at 3.9.-4.8 microns (nose on), 7) having the size and shape basically
that of a modern subsonic anti-ship missile: a streamlined, elongated
cylindrical form with aerodynamic control surfaces such as tails, fins,
and wings. Target dimensions should not exceed 6 meters in overall
length and 0.5 meter in fuselage diameter. Maximum tip-to-tip
dimensions of the control surfaces (nose-on view) should not exceed 2
meters. It is the Navy's desire to procure presentation services of
these aerial vehicles rather than specific vehicles or hardware. The
contractor will be responsible for providing and presenting vehicles
configured to meet the specific performance requirements, NAWCD Point
Mugu Range Safety requirements, and test event schedule requirements.
Offerors may propose modification of existing vehicles from Navy
inventory (to be provided as GFE in an ''as is'' condition) to meet the
specific requirements. Acceptance of the services will be made upon
satisfactory attainment of SOO requirements for each individual
presentation. Potential offerors should coordinate with NAWCD Pt. Mugu
representatives to identify government resources required to support
their proposed vehicle and operational concept. NAWCD Point of Contact
is Ms. Karen Draper, code 539100e, PHONE (805) 989-5938. NAVAIR POC is
