Description

The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), on behalf of the PMA-208 Aerial Targets Program Office, is issuing this Request for Information (RFI) to seek industry capabilities for the design, development, qualification, and manufacturing of approximately 100-150 turbojet engines. These engines are intended to support a BQM-34S production restart, bridging the gap until the next Full-Scale Aerial Target is fielded. NAVAIR is considering awarding Other Transaction Agreements (OTAs) under 10 U.S.C. SS 4022 for prototype projects. The BQM-34S is a jet-powered, high subsonic speed aerial target. The replacement engines must produce a minimum of 2850 lbf continuous Sea Level Static (SLS) thrust and fit within a cylindrical cavity of approximately 40 inches long and 22 inches in diameter. Auxiliary systems, including power generation, engine and fuel controls, and lubrication, must also be addressed. The program anticipates a minimum procurement of 100 units, with potential for additional procurements from other services. Production of the BQM-34S target is expected to begin no earlier than 2030, with deliveries starting no earlier than 2031 at a rate of approximately 25 targets per year.
