Within the Department of the Army RIF Annex:

Requirement Number PEOCSCSS04 has been removed from this solicitation.

Within the Department of the Air Force RIF Annex:

Requirement Number 8.a. Technical POC telephone number has been changed to read:

937-713-7561

Requirement Number 8.b. has been removed from this solicitation.

The following new requirement is added:

13.e ICBM Batteries Seeking technologies for ICBM Batteries. Ideally, it should be possible to build a battery or other energy storage device using modern technology that is capable of being stored for extended periods of time (20 – 30 years), be capable of meeting a variety of voltage, current, capacity and environmental requirements and have the same or less volume and reduced mass. While energy storage technologies are advancing quickly, the requirement for very long storage intervals has been prohibitive to replacing the squib-activated batteries with an alternative that might be easier to manufacture. A technology that could meet these requirements could have uses in other Air Force munitions and aircraft that have emergency or reserve power requirements.
