Additional mandatory equipment includes a searchlight of at least 2,000 lumens (10,000 lumens preferred) with GCS control offering steady, strobe, and additional modes (SOS or high/low), and a public address speaker with sound level of at least 114 dB at 1 meter (120 dB preferred), frequency range 800 Hz to 8 kHz, with GCS control supporting live and pre-recorded audio plus siren functionality.

Logistics, Training, Support, and Regulatory Compliance: The contractor must provide local data storage with export capability in standard video and telemetry formats, data-at-rest encryption with role-based access control, transport cases, spare propellers, basic spare parts, manuals, and checklists. Training must include basic and advanced in-person instruction covering operations, payload management, and safety procedures, comprising classroom instruction, practical flight training, final examination, and certificate of completion. Warranty must be minimum 24 months from final acceptance with defined RMA and repair/replacement terms. Technical support must be provided through ticket, email, and phone channels with response time of one business day or less, including a critical failure intervention plan. Service and maintenance support must be provided in Bosnia and Herzegovina with an authorized maintenance/repair facility required within Bosnia. The contractor must ensure registration of all UAV systems and obtain required operational authorizations from the Directorate of Civil Aviation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and ensure UAV operators receive certification from an independent, accredited organization registered in Bosnia and Herzegovina upon training completion.
