Tender Details

I. INTRODUCTION:
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Langley Research Center (LaRC) is hereby soliciting information from potential sources for the lease of two (2) aircraft that will be structurally modified, operated by NASA in support of the Scientifically Calibrated In-Flight Imagery (SCIFLI) team for airborne imaging missions in support of human spaceflight activities, and then returned to the contractor (lessor) upon completion of the performance period. Modifications to the leased aircraft will include, but not be limited to, custom built EO/IR sensor systems integrated within the modified aircraft. NASA’s modification and use of the leased aircraft will include aircraft configurations & hardware previously approved for Gulfstream III, IV, and V aircraft currently owned and operated by NASA. The proposed aircraft modifications have received airworthiness certifications from the Western, Central, and Eastern Region Airworthiness Review Boards across the Agency.
II. OVERVIEW & BACKGROUND:
NASA’s Scientifically Calibrated In-Flight Imagery (SCIFLI) project provides high-fidelity, multispectral and infrared imagery of aerospace vehicles during critical flight phases such as hypersonic reentry, atmospheric ascent, and parachute deployment. These observations are essential for validating aerothermal models, assessing thermal protection systems, and supporting mission assurance for both NASA and commercial spaceflight programs.
