Description

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is conducting market research through a Request for Information (RFI) on the current availability and technological capabilities of vendors to provide Level III Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (SUAS) to enhance USBP's SUAS Program. This RFI is specifically interested in Level III sUAS to support tactical field operations. The sUAS PMO intends to identify maturing technologies that can enhance USBP operational capabilities leading to increased situational awareness and execution of mission essential tasks. CBP is interested in exploring VTOL solutions that can adapt to employment modality (i.e., varied deployment capabilities from vehicles/vessels/stationary); host multiple sensors and/or communications; demonstrate extended periods aloft; and provide persistent recording of video and still imagery, not only internal to the SUAS, but also distributed to team awareness kit (TAK) devices. Use cases include, but are not limited to, vessel-born intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance (ISR) operations along a river edge, surveillance tower augmentation, check-point operations, perimeter security, and avenue of approach deterrence.
