About this file
This document outlines requirements for a federal contract to provide High Endurance Electronic Warfare Jet (HEEWJ) capabilities. The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) is soliciting proposals to procure contracted air services to support a variety of airborne threat simulations for Navy and joint force training exercises. Services will include basic air intercept control training, test and evaluation support, and participation in large and small exercises involving target/banner towing missions. Performance will take place at multiple continental U.S. and overseas locations. NAVAIR intends to award a single firm fixed price indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract for four years and 364 days. The document specifies required aircraft pods and systems, including countermeasures, radar simulators, electronic warfare, and large area tracking equipment. It also outlines power, wiring, and mounting requirements for external and internal mission systems. A pre-solicitation conference will be held on February 12-13, 2019 to discuss the draft RFP and program requirements before final release of the solicitation.

4.8 Digital Radio Frequency Memory (DRFM). DRFM jammers will be Government provided mission equipment and are multi-channel airborne radar jamming systems. The systems tie into the aircraft signal receiver antennas and transmitters. In operation, DRFM receives incoming radar signals and then develops and sends jamming waveforms to the transmitters. These systems, as shown in reference (j), consist of four independent Technique Generators (TG). These TGs generate jamming signals for the following radar bands: C/D, E/F/G and I/J. Below are simplified DRFM system block diagrams (Figures 10 and 12) for the SOJ and EA platform. For the SOJ missions, a mission computer which has a DRFM GUI software package to control individual TGs. This capability is not required for the EA platform currently. The green components in the Simplified Block Diagrams indicate that it will be Government provided mission equipment while the blue components indicate CFE.
