About this file
This is a Questions and Answers document for solicitation FA570225P0005 issued by the Department of the Air Force, United States Air Forces Central Command (USAFCENT), 379th Air Expeditionary Wing for PRC-117G radios or equal to be delivered to Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar.
The Q&A clarifies that this is a commercial purchase for the US Government with SATCOM capabilities, and the equipment will be exported from the United States but is not a Foreign Military Sale. Important technical clarifications include that the VDA-3231A Discone Antenna can be replaced with the AV 2012 UHF SATCOM Antenna, and the handsets (part #10075-1399) are already included with the 117G radios, eliminating the need for additional handsets. The document also confirms that a non-SOCOM version of part #12043-0194-01 is acceptable, as the end user is not a SOCOM unit.
