Criteria for assessment of the Statement of Capabilities (Minimum Essential Requirements)

Any interested supplier must demonstrate by way of a statement of capabilities that its product meets the following requirements: The product must be a NATO A-size sonobuoy installed in LAU-126/A Sonobuoy Launch Containers built for aircraft /shipboard training and operations in accordance with the Production Sonobuoy Specification for Bathythermograph Transmitting Set AN/SSQ-36B and Sonobuoys AN/SSQ-53F, 62E, 77C and 101A (PSS) dated 1 October 2008 (Revised 03/17/2016 REV C CHG 1). The product must combine a passive directional and calibrated wide-band Omni capability into a single multi-function sonobuoy. This sonobuoy must have both Electronic Function Select (EFS) for use prior to loading and launching and Command Function Select (CFS) to allow the operator to modify the sonobuoy’s modes of operation after it has been deployed in the water. This sonobuoy must have GPS location reporting capabilities following activation, with the GPS information formatted in accordance with National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA) Protocol 0183. To be compatible with DND’s CP140 aircraft stores release systems, the sonobuoys must be configured for air deployment within a cylindrical Sonobuoy Launch Container with a diameter of 4 7/8 (+0, -1/8) inches and a length of 36 (+.125, -187) inches. The sonobuoys as configured for air deployment (bare buoy) shall pass with no force other than gravity through a vertical right cylinder having an inside diameter of 4 15/16(+1/64, -0) inches and 4 feet long. Air descent of the sonobuoy must be stabilized and slowed by a parachute allowing for deployment within the Production Sonobuoy Specification (PSS) Altitude/Speed Launch Envelope. The sonobuoys must be currently flight qualified on either the P-3 Orion or CP-140 Aurora aircraft to eliminate the requirement for qualification and stores clearance testing. The sonobuoy must be capable of being deployed from the deck of a surface vessel.
