Rockwell Collins Radios

The Air Force Test Center (AFTC) at Edwards AFB intends to issue a sole‑source, firm‑fixed‑price contract to Collins Aerospace (formerly Rockwell Collins) for a set of UHF/VHF radios and mounting hardware required to support the 412 RANS test range. The solicitation is a pre‑notice; no formal solicitation documents exist yet, but interested vendors must submit a complete technical package demonstrating ability to meet strict legacy integration, encryption, and waveform requirements (HAVE QUICK I/II, SATURN, etc.). The requirement includes five 50 W VHF/UHF radios (part 270‑3186‑072), four RCU‑72 units, four RCU mounts, and three radio trays. The contract will be awarded on a sole‑source basis because the specified Collins 721S system is deemed the only product that satisfies all technical and interoperability criteria. • Item: 270‑3186‑072 RT‑4150 (50 W) VHF/UHF radio – Qty 5 • Item: 270‑3186‑872 RCU‑72 – Qty 4 • Item: 270‑3186‑061 RCU mount – Qty 4 • Item: 270‑3186‑060 MMT‑1000 radio tray – Qty 3 • Delivery to Edwards AFB, CA; integration with existing range infrastructure required • Vendor must provide technical data, warranty, commercial financing, and delivery information in the response • No reimbursement for proposal preparation; questions must be emailed to the Contracting Officer.
