The Rate Sensors measure, in degrees, the roll rate of the missile under test, and will be physically placed in the telemetry section, which replaces the warhead section of the Sidewinder Missile that will be destroyed during testing. The required dimensions of the missile design for rate sensors are 1.625 inches maximum diameter and 0.640 inch maximum thickness. The following additional characteristics are provided: Electrical -- Input Voltage: + or -5 VDC,+ or -5%; Input Power: <0.8 watts; Full Scale Output: + or -2.5 VDC. Performance -- Range: + or -500 degrees/s; Bandwidth: >80 Hz. Environmental -- Operating Temperature: -40 to +70 degrees C; Storage Temperature -55 to +110 degrees C. This procurement will be awarded as a commercial item in accordance with FAR Part 13.5 procedures. To qualify product under Drawing 639AS9453, a vendor's product must undergo first article qualification at their own expense. The Government reserves the right to waive first article for rate sensors that have previously been delivered by the offeror and accepted by the Government within the last 1 year.
