Quick Summary
The Department of the Army, U.S. Army Contracting Command-Redstone (ACC-RSA), has issued a Request for Information (RFI) for the Fixed Wing Project Office (FWPO). This RFI seeks market research regarding services to modify two (2) Egyptian Air Force (EAF) Beechcraft King Air B1900C aircraft with upgraded cockpit avionics. The goal is to enable IFR flight in civil airspace without country waivers. Responses are due May 4, 2026.
Purpose & Scope
The primary purpose is to gather information for integrating an upgraded avionics system into the EAF aircraft. This integration must be compatible with existing Federated post-production modifications (Aerodata Flight Inspection System and Leica Electro Optical System).
Key Requirements
- Integration of an upgraded avionics suite including: Transponder with Enhanced Surveillance (EHS) and ADS-B (Out), Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) with Space Based Augmentation System (SBAS), Traffic and Collision Avoidance Systems (TCAS) II Version 7.1, Air Data and Attitude Heading Reference Systems (ADAHRS), Weather Radar System, Multifunction Displays (MFD), Flight Management System (FMS), new Autopilot, and Inertial Reference System (IRS).
- Utilization of FAA or EASA approved Supplemental Type Certificate(s) (STC).
- Provision of all labor, equipment, material, and tools.
- Outside the Continental United States (OCONUS) training for up to six pilots, six technicians, and three navigators in Cairo, Egypt, including Computer Based Training (CBT) and hands-on training.
- Development and delivery of training packages for in-country support.
- Two-year avionics spares package, including two AR-1500 radios, delivered to Cairo, Egypt.
- Tracking and documentation of removed aircraft components.
- One-year warranty coverage from DD-250 signing.
Contract Details
- Type: Request for Information (RFI) for planning purposes; anticipated Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract.
- Anticipated Period of Performance (PoP): 12 months after contract award.
- Set-Aside: None specified.
Submission Requirements
Respondents must submit a detailed white paper addressing technical requirements, including proposed avionics components, existing STCs, technical experience with similar upgrades, resources for work in Cairo, and ability to obtain FAA/EASA certification. A Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) cost estimate in Excel, with separate pricing for delays and for spares/training, is also required. This is an RFI only; responses are voluntary and will not be compensated.
Response Due
Responses are required via email no later than May 4, 2026, by 12:00 PM CST.
