The US Air Force has issued a request to industry to supply counter-UAS systems with satellite navigation attack capabilities.
“The acquisition of four (x4) Counter Unmanned Aircraft Systems (cUAS) with Satellite Navigation Attack which provides the capability to bolster and fulfill surveillance, base security requirements along with defeating air threats and unpredictable nature of today’s criminal and terrorist threats, the 55th SFS is specifically looking for new and improved detection and defeat capabilities against a rapidly growing technology-based threat.
“Having a mobile, rapidly deployable, long-range, high-power battery powered Counter Unmanned Aircraft Systems (cUAS) with Satellite Navigation Attack bolsters the layered security of the installation and grants the protection against drones armed with spoofing technology to fool our current systems. Counter Unmanned Aircraft Systems (cUAS) with Satellite Navigation Attack is the most effective measure to provide quick response for incidents both on the flightline, mass parking areas and across the installation along with our assets as they travel.
“Counter Unmanned Aircraft Systems (cUAS) with Satellite Navigation Attack are vital for force protection, Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance (ISR) drones, anti-terrorism, and installation defense needs and enhance/compliment the use of the Negation of Improvised Non-State Joint Aerial system.”
Deadline for submissions is September 22, 2023.
