Question and Answers:

Q1. No delivery date, number of days after award, or delivery milestone appears in the RFQ or in Attachments 1, 3, or 4. What delivery timeframe is required?

A1. Delivery is required no later than 6 weeks after receipt of order. Delivery date has been added to the

Q2. Attachment 3 item 2 requires quick-connect mounting compatible with an existing Department of the Air Force owned FreeFly Astro sUAS, including all required mounts, adapters, and cabling. Freefly has fielded three Astro generations with materially different lift capacity: the legacy Astro is limited to 1,500 g of payload, while Astro Max carries 3,000

g. Because Attachment 3 item 4 permits a total payload weight up to 1.7 kg, a fully compliant sensor package would exceed the capacity of a legacy Astro airframe. Would the Government confirm which Astro generation the Government-owned aircraft is, and which payload mount is currently installed on it — the Astro Isolator, the Smart Dovetail receiver, or the Integrator Vibration Isolator — so that the correct adapter and cabling set is furnished on first delivery and the payload weight is achievable on the host aircraft?

A2. The system will be mounted on a Freefly Astro Max.

Q3. We would like to know if this is a brand new contract OR if there is (was) an incumbent performing these services.

A3. This is a new requirement.

Q4. The key question for this RFQ is whether the NDAA and Section 889 requirements in Sections 848, 817, and 1821-1833 apply to the sensor payload or only to the aircraft.

EchoOne's own spec sheet states compliance with FY2020 NDAA Section 848 and FY2023 NDAA Section 817, which is why this distinction matters for the or-equal response. ROCK's LiDAR sensor is manufactured in China through one of our supply partners, and we don't carry written manufacturer NDAA or Section 889 certification for the payload itself. If payload-level certification is required, ROCK can't meet that requirement for this line item.

A4. Both the sensor and the platform must be compliant with the NDAA.
