About this opportunity

The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) Lakehurst is soliciting industry information on its ability to provide a non-developmental or commercial-off-the-shelf Aircraft-to-Computer Interface Device (ACID) to interface between the MQ-4C Triton Aircraft and the Getac X500G3 Ruggedized Laptop (DINO, P/N 504045-1001), with responses due 11 August 2026 at 5:00 P.M. EST. No set-aside applies.

The device will interface between the MQ-4C Triton Aircraft and support equipment computers for maintenance and operational use in flight-deck environments. Performance requirements include MIL-STD-810H compliance, one-man portability per MIL-STD-1472, and capability to operate eight hours daily at 100% usage with volatile memory only. Required I/O interfaces include USB Type A 3.0 (2), HDMI (1), VGA (1), USB Thunderbolt 3.0 (1), MIL-STD-1553B 2-channel (1), three Ethernet variant ports, and RS-232 serial ports (2).

Responses must be submitted in PDF format to Michael Kirchner (michael.d.kirchner2.civ@us.navy.mil) and Kevin Turner (kevin.p.turner.ctr@us.navy.mil), limited to 15 pages. Respondents must provide administrative information, technical feasibility feedback on draft specifications, proposed design and material solutions, company experience with ruggedized aerospace/defense equipment, rough order of magnitude cost and schedule estimates, and risk mitigation strategies. A draft specification is available to interested vendors who submit a valid DD2345 to the primary point of contact; the specification will be provided via DoD SAFE. This RFI is for information and planning purposes only and does not constitute a commitment to contract. Failure to respond does not preclude participation in any future RFP to be synopsized on sam.gov.
