1.1 Requirement: The Air Force Packaging and Engineering Facility (AFPTEF) was tasked to develop the Gray Eagle Rapid Transport System ("trailer") for expeditionary ops of USSOCOM MQ-1C ER aircraft, and it is currently tasked to fabricate two more of them.

The jack screw is an open market item, made-to-order and configured for the trailer. Likewise, the trailer has been designed to interface with this specific screw jack. The Government is requesting quotations IAW with the technical specifications listed in the SOW developed by AFPTEF dated 9/25/2025.
