About this file
This document appears to be a technical specification related to a federal contract opportunity for Airborne Expendable Ice Beacon (AXIB) II air-deployable buoys. The key details are:
The contractor shall provide twenty-three (23) AXIB II buoys with Vinylester Fiberglass hulls, steel ballast rods, and sensors to measure air pressure, 2-m air temperature, and surface temperature. The buoys shall transmit data via Iridium satellite and provide GPS positioning. The buoys must be certified for air deployment from a Coast Guard C-130 and have lithium batteries to survive at least 2 years in temperatures as low as -40C.
The related federal contract opportunity is a pre-solicitation notice for the procurement of these AXIB II buoys by the Department of the Navy's Naval Supply Systems Command. The government plans to procure the buoys as a commercial product. Responses to the sources sought notice are due by 12:00pm EST on 16 August 2024, but this is not a request for quote. No contract will be awarded from this announcement, which is for market research and planning purposes only.
