Request for Information (RFI): Fire Control Sensor Market Availability
The U.S. Army is seeking information on a small, lightweight, and affordable sensor system capable of tracking both outbound projectiles (7.62mm, .50 cal) and inbound Group 1 and 2 small UAS threats, suitable for stationary and on-the-move operations on various ground combat vehicles. The system must meet minimum requirements including self-cued detection and tracking of inbound threats at a range of at least 1000m while simultaneously tracking outbound projectiles, providing fire-control quality data for hit-to-kill engagements. The ideal solution should be configurable for mounting on vehicles such as the HMMWV, Bradley, Stryker, Abrams, JLTV, and next-generation combat vehicles. Responses must be submitted within 30 calendar days from the publication date, with white papers limited to 15 pages including a 1-page executive summary, focusing on systems at Technology Readiness Level 5 or 6. No budget amount is specified, and the location for performance is not mentioned.
