Counter-Unmanned Aircraft Systems (C-UAS) for four Eradication bases

The Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs within the Department of State is seeking to procure five patrol and tactical drone gun systems designed for deployment at four eradication bases. These systems are intended to counter unmanned aircraft threats and enhance security operations in high-risk environments, with the primary place of performance located in Bogota. The procurement falls under NAICS code 336413, which pertains to missile and space vehicle manufacturing, indicating the specialized nature of the equipment being acquired. Along with the drone gun systems, the contract includes associated equipment and comprehensive training for personnel to ensure effective operational use and sustained capability. The initiative is part of a broader effort to secure eradication operations against illicit activities, where drone threats pose a significant risk to personnel and mission integrity.
