Description
The Army Contracting Command-Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG) Belvoir Division is conducting market research on behalf of the US Army Product Manager Ground Sensors, in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 10. The purpose of this Market Research is to identify potential sources that have the skills, experience, knowledge, and capabilities required to manufacture and deliver Third Generation Forward Looking Infrared (3GEN FLIR) B-Kit under Low-Rate Initial Production (LRIP) and Full Rate Production (FRP) contracts.
The 3GEN FLIR B-Kit comprises a set of common assemblies, including the Dewar Cooler Bench (DCB) (provided as Government Furnished Equipment (GFE), optics (afocal, imager), and circuit card assemblies (CCAs). The B-Kit optics collect radiation in the Mid-Wave (MW) and Long-Wave (LW) infrared bands across four fields of view and focuses it onto a staring Focal Plane Array housed in the DCB. The B-Kit components are intended to be interchangeable Shop Replaceable Units to maximize economies of scale like the 2nd Generation Forward Looking Infrared (2GF) B-Kit. The 3GEN FLIR B-Kit provides the ability to detect threats at greater distances under a full spectrum of conflict and battlefield conditions. 3GEN FLIR enhances the platform's effectiveness and survivability by providing greater situational awareness promoting combat effectiveness and reducing fratricide. The B-Kit is also integrated into the Thermal Receiver Unit (TRU) as a sub-assembly which includes a Personality Module CCA, Electromagnetic Interference Filter, afocal guard, and electrical flexes mounted in the TRU mechanical bench.
The TRU, B-Kit sub-assemblies, electronic modules, and the DCB, defined under RFI # W909MY-22-C-0023, will be integrated into sight systems for subsequent integration onto host vehicle platforms. The B-Kit provider will be responsible for integrating the GFE DCB into their B-Kit design. The DCB will be provided as GFE to th...
