About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center is seeking information on propulsion system options for the Future Next Generation Air Refueling System (NGAS). This Request for Information (RFI) focuses on four primary categories of existing propulsion system capabilities, options for scaling existing systems, and new propulsion systems. The RFI is specifically focused on near-term (6 years), mid-term (10 years), and far-term (15 years) capabilities starting from an assumed program initiation in the third quarter of fiscal year 2025. Responses to this RFI will be used to support the Analysis of Alternatives, operational analysis, and initial strategy development to achieve desired aircraft characteristics such as long range, reduced takeoff distance, dash speed, survivability, power and thermal capacity, and fuel offload capability.
This RFI is not set-aside for any specific business size or type. No potential incumbents or current contractors are named. The RFI does not specify any award values or budget ranges. The only numerical details provided are the timeframes of interest for the propulsion system capabilities.
Notice text
For the future Next Generation Air Refueling System (NGAS), the government is seeking information on propulsion system options that enable platform capability to achieve USG objectives. This RFI requests information for the four primary categories of existing propulsion system capability, options for scaling existing propulsion systems, and new propulsion systems. This RFI focuses on these capabilities at discrete intervals defined as near (6 years), mid (10 years), and far (15 years) terms from a program initiation assumed to be 3QFY25. The propulsion thrust range of interest for this RFI is broad due to the state of the Analysis of Alternatives (AoA), but the questions in this RFI are intended to provide focus for responses.
The responses to this RFI will be used to support the USG’s Analysis of Alternatives, operational analysis and to build initial strategies for achieving the desired aircraft characteristics of long range, reduced runway take-off distance, dash speed capability, survivability, power and thermal capacity, and fuel offload capability.
