About this file
This document contains questions and answers regarding radio equipment requirements for a tethered drone solicitation from the Department of Justice Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco Firearms and Explosives. The solicitation allows for the Silvus radio to be permanently mounted internally to aircraft and powered by aircraft systems, using external airborne-optimized antennae. Only the Silvus mesh radio system is required for integration; no other radio manufacturers need to be included. The related solicitation, numbered DJA-23-ASOD-PR-0058-Tethered-Drones, is seeking proposals for tethered drone systems and has a requirement only for Silvus radios to enable mesh networking capabilities.

Q: Please confirm if the Silvus radio can be permanently mounted internally to the aircraft for better aerodynamics and support, to use internal power from the aircraft (and external airborne optimized antennae). Would other radios need to be mounted? Such as Doodle Labs or Persistent Systems? For best performance and range antenna specifically designed for airborne application are recommended rather than those supplied for handheld, ground units.
A: The Silvus radio could be mounted internally but in no way necessary. We do require the radio to be powered via the drone.
We have no other mesh radio systems besides Silvus. Therefore, Silvus integration is the requirement.
