This RFI is designed to determine if other responsible sources exist who can deliver equivalent capability without substantial duplication of cost or unacceptable delays, and whether a noncompetitive acquisition under FAR 6.103-1(c)(2) may be justified. Respondents are required to submit detailed capability statements by 29 July 2026, demonstrating technical proficiency with the specified target systems and addressing key factors including access to proprietary data, tooling, and qualified personnel; plans for reverse-engineering or developing equivalent systems with timelines for airworthiness certification; a clear transition strategy with no degradation in operational tempo; and a full breakdown of estimated non-recurring engineering, start-up, and transition costs. Companies must also provide evidence of past performance supporting DoD aerial target programs, identify any commercial or non-developmental items that could satisfy requirements, and disclose any proprietary restrictions, licensing issues, export controls, or data rights limitations that could impact Government access or use. The Government will use all submissions solely to assess market viability, evaluate competition potential, and guide acquisition strategy—no contract is implied or guaranteed, and respondents incur all costs associated with participation. Responses are voluntary, become Government property, and must be submitted electronically with proprietary information clearly marked. Failure to demonstrate a viable alternative may result in the continuation of the current contractor under an extension of the existing ADA-T II IDIQ contract.
