The F-35 Lightning II Program Office intends to issue an order under Basic Agreement N00019-24-G-0010. The U.S. Government (USG) requires an F-35 platform interface Test and Evaluation (T&E) solution to directly inject synthetic Electro-Optical Infrared (EO/IR) imagery into an F-35 system under test (SUT), utilizing the government furnished scene generation system. This effort is a continuation of the work performed under the N00019-23-F0017. This acquisition is being pursued on a sole source basis under the statutory authority of 10 U.S.C. 3201(a)(1), as implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1, �Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies Or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements.� Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company is the sole designer, developer, manufacturer and integrator of the F-35 aircraft and the related equipment. Lockheed Martin alone has the experience, special skills, proprietary technical documentation, software/algorithms, and technical expertise required to furnish the supplies and services within the required timeframe. Accordingly, Lockheed Martin is the only known qualified, responsible source that can fulfill the requirements specified herein.

Any information submitted by respondents to this technical description is strictly voluntary.
