Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) Patuxent River, MD, intends to issue a follow-on Basic Ordering Agreement to Undersea Sensor Systems Inc., 7625 Omnitech Place Suite 1, Victor NY 14564-9816, on an other than full and open basis to provide continued design, fabrication, qualification, and delivery of hardware, software, and firmware upgrades and updates for P-3C, P-8A, and MH-60R aircraft. These efforts include improvements to Multi-static Active Coherent (MAC), High Altitude ASW (HAASW), and Navy Underwater Active Multiple Ping (NUAMP) system capabilities. The MAC system brings coherent acoustic source technology and improved signal processing to the air multi-static active ASW mission set. The HAASW program integrates modified sonobuoy sensors to enhance P-8A capability to conduct missions at higher than traditional fixed-wing airborne ASW altitudes. The NUAMP capability, within the Airborne ASW Intelligence (AAI), program supports fleet intelligence collection efforts and enables rapid development and insertion of advanced technology capabilities into airborne ASW platforms. Required efforts also include acoustic software support activity, acoustic subsystem development, integration, Advanced Processing Build insertion activities, software and hardware development, testing, and sustainment on the P-8A or other ASW platforms. In addition, Acoustic Communications (ACOMMS) prototype sonobuoys and VPX Integrated Programmable Receiver (VIPRs) will be procured under this contract vehicle. The Air Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) Systems Program Office (PMA-264) has the requirement in Fiscal Years (FY) 2025 through 2030 for the aforementioned hardware and support.
