About this file
This PowerPoint file details requirements for a specialized military mobility trailer requested by the 57th Rescue Squadron (AFSPECWAR), accompanied by a pre-solicitation notice (FA568225Q2008) from the Department of the Air Force seeking industry feedback. The trailer must function as a mobile command center with sleeping quarters for 6-8 personnel.
The required specifications include sleeping accommodations for 6-8 personnel with Twin XL-sized beds that can double as medical litters, 5-day water capacity with on-demand heating, climate control for extreme environments (-20°F to 100°F), dual power systems (diesel generator and solar), extensive communications capabilities (Starshield terminal, SATCOM, HF/VHF/UHF antenna mounts), two workstation areas with dual-monitor setups, specialized lighting modes (white/red/IR), off-road suspension compatible with F-250 towing, military-appropriate aesthetics (dark green/FDE), and storage for tactical gear. The pre-solicitation emphasizes a maximum weight of 6,000 lbs, globally available replacement parts, and interest in armor options. No award will be made based on responses to this market research.

57th Rescue Squadron: AFSPECWAR Trailer
| Capability | Details |
| Sleeping | Sleeps 6-8 x 6’2”, 200lb men (roughly a Twin XL bed). Ideally beds can also be used as litters for patients. Consider litter stanchions like a C-130. Consider something like Navy bunks. |
| Water | Carries enough water for about 5 days of operations with 1 x 2 min shower per person per day and 2 gallons of drinking water per person per day. Has on-demand water heater. |
| Environmental | Heating, Air Conditioning, and insulation to operate in northern Sweden/Finland during the winter and in Eastern Europe in the summer. Screens and windows that allow cross-breeze without AC. |
| Cooking | 1 small stove to be able to boil water & cook. Ideally also a small fridge. These are both lower priority. |
| Power | Diesel generator, solar panels, & battery bank. Lots of both 110V and 220V outlets inside. Need racks to be able to charge 12 x Harris AN-PRC-163 batteries and 4 x 2590 batteries at the same time while also running 3 laptops and 3 TVs 24/7. |
| Communication | Empty spot to embed a Starshield (military Starlink) terminal in the roof. In-line SATCOM antenna (like you’d see on top of an aircraft). Have a weatherproof port that allows us to pass antenna cables up to the roof for various types of military HF/VHF/UHF antennas. Have a mount where a Voyager 8 can be placed to allow SIPR access. |
| Planning | A small mission planning area with 2 workstations (each with 2 laptops and 2 monitors/TVs). Ideally have a hide-away whiteboard and TV that can be used for an outdoor briefing under an awning. |
| Lighting | Normal LED lighting inside but with the option to go red-light only or IR-light only. Should have a master mode switch somewhere that can prevent someone from accidentally turning on white or red light. |
| Mobility | Off-road suspension that will allow this vehicle to be pulled down dirt roads during the muddy season in Eastern Europe. Able to be towed by an F-250. All season or off-road tires to be able to operate on highways, icy roads, or back roads without losing control without switching tires. 1-2 spare tires mounted on board. Skinny enough to drive down European roads. |
| Aesthetics | Dark military green or flat dark earth coloration. Ideally matte. Not camo. Tinted windows so you can’t see in. Blackout shades so we can use light inside without even a pin-prick leaking out at night. Slide-out optional. |
| Storage | Enough storage to allow 8 guys to carry a helmet, plate carrier, rifle, and small backpack. Ideally internally stored. |
Concept: A mobile command center combined with a sleeping trailer that allows about 8 people to move every 8 hours with minimal logistical support. Personnel should be able to sleep in the back and use computers while on the move. Compromise luxury to add capability.
