About this opportunity
The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) is seeking to productionize the AN/UPX-52 Common Core Digital Interrogator (CCDI), an updated version of the AN/UPX-50(C) Digital Interrogator designed to address obsolescence issues and consolidate multiple systems for Department of Defense Air Traffic Control Radar Beacon System and Identify Friend or Foe certification. The procuring agency intends to award a Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) order through this sources sought notice to identify qualified contractors capable of meeting complex technical requirements. Key requirements include integration of specialized algorithms, development of test equipment, compliance with Aegis Weapon System and Ship's Self Defense System performance standards, and ability to deliver Engineering Development Models beginning in December 2026. Prospective vendors must demonstrate capability to complete productionization without an existing Technical Data Package and provide timelines supporting BAE Systems' production delivery requirements. Interested contractors must submit a 10-page capabilities statement by January 27, 2026, and all respondents must be registered in the System for Award Management.
This opportunity is not designated as a set-aside and represents an open competition. BAE Systems is identified as the current incumbent, having served as the sole designer and manufacturer of the Digital Interrogator for over ten years. The government has not disclosed a specific award value or budget range for this effort in the pre-solicitation notice. The program requires delivery of multiple units supporting production deliveries scheduled for December 2027 across multiple ship classes. This sources sought notice is strictly informational in nature and does not constitute a binding commitment by the government to award a contract, nor are government funds available to reimburse contractors for proposal preparation costs.
