The requirement is for a complete propulsion system (e.g. engine and associated components) that is fully integrated into the F-15EX weapon system in order to meet propulsion and aircraft production delivery schedules. For the purpose of this Synopsis/Presolicitation Notice, the term “integration” shall be interpreted broadly to encompass completion of all work necessary to incorporate your company’s engines into the F-15EX weapon system, including without limitation all design, development, modification, documentation, testing, and airworthiness certification. While this integration effort may execute concurrently with engine production, airworthiness certification of the F-15EX to operate with your company’s engines would need to occur before time of delivery.
