About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Test Center has issued a Special Notice for MWIR Relay Lenses, targeting manufacturers of specialized optical components for military testing equipment. The notice is associated with solicitation FA282325QA017 and seeks drop-in replacement lens assemblies for the Guided Weapon Evaluation Facility (GWEF). Specifically, the opportunity focuses on procuring two midwave infrared (MWIR) relay lens assemblies with precise technical specifications. The opportunity is categorized under NAICS code 334511 for Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing, and PSC category 6650 for Optical Instruments and Test Equipment. The contract opportunity was posted on April 9, 2025, with a response deadline of June 2, 2025.
Contractors are expected to provide lens assemblies that meet extensive technical requirements, including specific physical, environmental, and optical performance parameters. The technical specifications mandate precise dimensions, with a maximum length of 236.67 mm, aluminum dust covers, and a flat black mechanical assembly color. Optical performance requirements are comprehensive, covering spectral range (1.9-5.5 μm), transmission rates, encircled energy, and specific optical characteristics such as an 8-degree circular field of view and less than 3% grid distortion. The lenses must operate within a temperature range of 65-75°F and 20-50% humidity, with anti-reflective coatings on all optical elements. No specific set-aside is indicated, suggesting the opportunity is open to all qualified contractors who can meet the rigorous technical specifications. Contractors are encouraged to propose alternative solutions if any specifications are technically challenging or would significantly impact cost, indicating some flexibility in the procurement process.
