Project Management Office, Aircraft Survivability Equipment (PMO-ASE) Laser Detection & Warning System - United States Government (USG)

The Army Contracting Command—Redstone Arsenal (ACC-RSA) is conducting market research to identify parties with an interest in and the resources to support the requirement for Laser Detection capabilities for the USG. The required capabilities include detection and warning for ground and aerial based pulsed and continuous-wave lasers aimed at an aircraft, as well as providing enough data to produce a location of the source. The system should alert aircrews by providing information on cockpit displays that may be relayed to ground forces or other vehicles. Some possible multi-use technologies that may be included are Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) detection, Low Probability of Detection (LPD)/ Low Probability of Intercept (LPI) laser communication, Discriminate Laser Sources (laser IFF), Radar Cueing, LiDAR, Degraded Visual Environment (DVE) assistive technology, and Threat Defeat. • The system should provide detection and warning for ground and aerial based pulsed and continuous-wave lasers aimed at an aircraft. • The system should provide enough data to produce a location of the source, including an accurate eight (8) to ten (10) digit grid point of origin (PoO). • The system should alert aircrews by providing information on cockpit displays that may be relayed to ground forces or other vehicles. • The system may include multi-use technologies such as Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) detection, Low Probability of Detection (LPD)/ Low Probability of Intercept (LPI) laser communication, Discriminate Laser Sources (laser IFF), Radar Cueing, LiDAR, Degraded Visual Environment (DVE) assistive technology, and Threat Defeat.
