High-Power RF Amplifier Design and Manufacturing

The contract entails the full design, engineering, and production of a high-power RF amplifier system operating within the 7.5 to 18 GHz frequency range with a minimum output power of 1000 watts. The system must be engineered to meet stringent military-grade performance standards, including robust electromagnetic shielding and advanced thermal management capabilities to ensure reliable operation under extreme environmental conditions. All components and assemblies must comply with defense-grade specifications for durability, signal integrity, and long-term stability in operational deployments. This is a subcontract opportunity issued by the Government of Canada through the Department of National Defence, with a response deadline of May 26, 2026. The North American Industry Classification System code 334511 applies, indicating a focus on radio and television broadcasting and communications equipment manufacturing.
