INTRODUCTION The Electronic Warfare Integrated Laboratories (EWIL), code 45Q000E, at the Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD), Point Mugu, California currently utilizes an existing Electronic Warfare Systems Integration Test Environment (EW SITE) radar environment simulator to support system performance evaluation and integration of various Electronic Warfare (EW) systems. DISCLAIMER THIS SOURCES SOUGHT IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. IT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A SOLICITATION AND SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT BY THE GOVERNMENT. RESPONSES IN ANY FORM ARE NOT OFFERS AND THE GOVERNMENT IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO AWARD A CONTRACT AS A RESULT OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. NO FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE TO PAY FOR THE PREPARATION OF RESPONSES TO THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. ANY INFORMATION SUBMITTED BY RESPONDENTS TO THIS TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION IS STRICTLY VOLUNTARY. BACKGROUND The EW SITE system was developed and manufactured by Textron AAI under a sole source contract with the United States Navy to test EW systems of the EA-6B, EA-18G, F/A-18, MH-60, E-2C, P-8A and F-35 (JSF) platforms, and corresponding systems and subsystems. The EW SITE provides digitally controlled Radio Frequency (RF), phase, amplitude, and time based modulations that represent threat radars. Adding test assets to the EWIL provides a more robust threat environment in the form of a high pulse density, dynamic, simulated flight environment. This requirement will provide a follow-on Single Award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) to an existing Single-Award IDIQ (N6893616D0001) with Textron AAI Corporation. The IDIQ with Textron AAI was not a small business set-aside and the contract was awarded using the 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) statutory authority to permit other than full and open competition. Ordering on the current IDIQ ends in January 2021. Requests for information associated with N6893616D0001 will be addressed through the NAVAIR Freedom of Information (FOIA) website at http://foia.navair.navy.mil. REQUIRED CAPABILITIES This requirement will provide for the development of EW SITE systems and sub-system components for domestic and FMS customers in the NAWCWD radar environment simulator to support system performance evaluation and integration of various EW systems. This will result in expanded capabilities and allow the EWIL to continue to efficiently develop and test current and future EW systems and capabilities in support of aircraft platform integration and test. EW SITE system supports System Configuration Sets (SCS) from multiple platforms and provides consistency with the Advanced Weapons Laboratory at China Lake, CA. The EW SITE components shall be compatible with the government's existing EW SITE LITE system delivered under contracts N68936-09-C-0138, N68936-13-C-0161 and N68936-16-D-0001. The same Configuration compatibility with existing EW SITE system components is required to enable sharing of hardware components between existing threat simulators and leveraging of existing government-developed threat scenario software. The EW SITE components shall simulate threat and friendly radar systems, communications, and Data Link systems for performing systems integration and test on EA-6B, EA-18G, F/A-18, MH-60, E-2C, P-8A and F-35 (JSF) platforms, and corresponding systems and sub-systems.
