CJA_24-0272 Amendment 01 (REDACTED).pdf

This is a Class Justification and Approval (CJ&A) document from the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) authorizing sole source contract actions to MSI Defense Solutions for the Electronic Advanced Ground Launcher System (EAGLS) Counter-Uncrewed Aerial System (C-UAS). The CJ&A Amendment 01 was approved on 26 August 2024 and expires on 27 February 2026.

The document justifies sole source procurement of EAGLS C-UAS testing, initial spares, support equipment, engineering and technical support, maintenance support, and Field Service Representative system support services through FY2026. MSI Defense Solutions was awarded contract N00019-24-C-0029 in February 2024 as the sole designer, developer, and manufacturer of the EAGLS system. The justification cites MSI's unique technical data rights, manufacturing capabilities, and 12-month lead time for qualifying alternate sources as key factors. Two Sources Sought notices were issued (August 2024 and January 2025) with no responses received. The contract actions support rapid deployment of EAGLS C-UAS capabilities requested by the Office of Secretary of Defense through a Rapid Acquisition Authority to address emerging UAS threats.
