A -- SYNTHETIC APERTURE RADAR DUE 013197 POC Dan Kuderna, Electronics Engineer, SFAE-IEW-NV-TS, FAX: 908-427-5072. E-MAIL: synthetic aperture radar, kennard@doim6.monmouth.army.mil. This is a market survey by the Dept of the Army to determine the existence or additional sources who have demonstrated the capability to manufacture a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) for integration into the Predator Medium Altitude Endurance Unmanned Air Vehicle. At a minimum, this radar must meet the following performance requirements: resolution of 0.3m strip map SAR, CEP of 30 meters, depression angles of 15 to 60 degrees, squint angle of 90 degree +/- 5 degree at speeds from 25-80 meter/second. The SAR payload must meet the mechanical and electrical interfaces of the Predator MAE UAV. System weight must be no greater than 175 pounds, meet power requirements of 1200 W. There is a potential Army requirement for a quantity of forty-seven (47) SAR payloads, nine (9) sets of Ground Control Station racks and requisite spares. First system delivery would be required twelve (12) months after contract award with following units delivered at a rate of one (1) to two (2) radar per month. The government presently does not have configuration control of drawings and there is no technical data package available. This is not a request for proposals. Sources capable of Synthetic Aperture Radar which meet or exceed the above requirements shall indicate in writing by SPECIFIED DATE to PM NV/RSTA, ATTN: SFAE-IEW-NV-TS (Dan Kuderna), Bldg 9039, Evans Area, Fort Monmouth, NJ 07703-5302, FAX (908)427-5072 with a copy of the introduction letter provided to USA CECOM, C4IEW Acquisition Center, ATTN: AMSEL-ACCC-A-CF, Fort Monmouth, NJ 07703-5302, FAX (908) 427-3113.
