C-130H Industry Day Q&A

The United States Air Force is seeking industry feedback on the Draft Request for Proposal (RFP) for the C-130H Formation Positioning System (FPS) replacement program. The program office held a Virtual Industry Day to provide updates on Pre Milestone-B planning and receive industry feedback. The RFP is expected to be a Fixed Price contract, but Cost type contracts may be considered for specific Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs). The Government is seeking input on how to ensure the system meets operational needs and is fielded as swiftly as possible. The FPS encryption requirements align to the latest DoW standards, and the MILACAS-FR sensor will be used for the H FPS technical solution. Key points to consider: • The program office is seeking industry feedback on the Draft RFP • The RFP is expected to be a Fixed Price contract • The Government is seeking input on how to ensure the system meets operational needs • The FPS encryption requirements align to the latest DoW standards • The MILACAS-FR sensor will be used for the H FPS technical solution
