Uncrewed Aircraft Systems Project Office 2025 Sources Sought for Purpose Built Attritable Systems (PBAS) First Person View (FPV) Small Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (SUAS) Product Service Code: 15 - AEROSPACE CRAFT AND STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS NAICS Code: 336411 – Aircraft Manufacturing. 336413 – Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing. 334511 – Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing. 334290 – Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing. Place of Performance: Army Contracting Command – Redstone, 5303 Martin Road Sparkman Center, Redstone Arsenal, AL 35898, USA Purpose: This Sources Sought is to assess commercially available and viable Purpose-Built Attritable Systems (PBAS) First Person View (FPV) Small Uncrewed Aircraft System (SUAS) candidates for a possible invitation for a follow-on demonstration in support of the United States Army Maneuver Elements. This sources sought may be used to fulfill future procurement requirements, therefore the Uncrewed Aircraft System (UAS) must be 2020 NDAA Sec 848, 2023 NDAA Sec 817 and American Security Drone Act of 2023 (2024 NDAA, PL 118-31, DIV A, Title XVIII, Subtitle B, SEC. 1821) compliant or demonstrate a path to compliance. Background: The Program Executive Office (PEO) Aviation, Project Manager (PM), UAS, seeks information on commercially available products that are production ready, reusable, unretrievable components (uncrewed aircraft platforms, payloads, and ancillary equipment) and cost-effective SUAS to be employed at the maneuver small unit level. FPV enabled SUAS provide the maneuver force a low cost solution with increased maneuverability, precise lethal payload delivery, and operator concealability. As such, the PBAS FPV, hereafter referred to as PBAS, designed with baseline mission characteristics that focus on rapid reconfigurability and modular payload capabilities that allow for mission changes across target acquisition tasks, with the added flexibility to execute kinetic operations as needed. The system’s mission characteristics include a field-level reconfigurable, modular payload capability to execute the primary mission of Reconnaissance Surveillance and Target Acquisition (RSTA), secondary mission of communications relay, and enhanced mission set of lethal payload delivery and electronic support.
