Description
1.0 PURPOSE The Portfolio Acquisition Executive for Weapons (PAE-W) is conducting market research to identify potential sources with the capabilities to design, develop, and manufacture an adaptable and affordable Family of Affordable Mass Missiles (FAMM). This RFI is issued to gather information from industry on their abilities to perform these tasks in an affordable and expedited manner. 2.0 BACKGROUND INFORMATION The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, Armament Directorate, Adaptive Weapons Division, Weapons Capacity Task Force (EBIW), Eglin AFB, FL issues this RFI to help determine the technical capability and qualifications of industry to meet a need to produce FAMM-BAR for the Government and Foreign Military Sales. The potential procurement objective is to produce an inventory for the Government and Foreign Military Sales. The expectation is that the annual production orders will range from 1000 – 2000 units per year for 5 years (procurement numbers will vary by year). The program office seeks to streamline the battlespace by developing a single, common, air-to-surface munition that is affordable, adaptable, and possesses significant standoff range. The core concept is a singular design that allows for the primary deployment method via Palletized: For long-range strike from cargo aircraft. The Government is also presenting trade space for a secondary deployment method from the same singular design via Lugged: For long-range employment on fighter and additional aircraft. The program office requests more information on your current design and if it includes the ability for the munition to be delivered from air to surface, and surface to surface by Army and Navy systems.
