Surveillance and Tracking RADAR Processors (STRAP) Support Services

Background: Ninth Air Force (9AF) (Air Forces Central) (AFCENT) is the air component of the United States Central Command (USCENTCOM), a regional unified command. 9AF (AFCENT) is responsible for air operations and for developing contingency plans in support of national objectives for USCENTCOM's 20-nation Area of Responsibility (AOR) in Southwest Asia and bordering areas of interest. 9AF (AFCENT) has a requirement to provide Radio Detection and Ranging (RADAR) data to the Battlespace Command and Control Center-Theater (BC3-T). Surveillance and Tracking RADAR Processors (STRAP) and associated equipment dispersed throughout the USCENTCOM AOR transmits RADAR and sensor data from multiple locations to the BC3-T. The BC3-T uses this data to generate a common air picture (COP), to facilitate command and control capabilities for all air traffic and to provide Close Air Support (CAS) for ground troops engaged in hostile actions. Mission: Contractor shall provide RADAR and sensor data services to the BC3-T, USCENTCOM AOR Air Traffic Control (ATC) facilities and other sensor/nodes as designated by the 9AF (AFCENT) Operations Directorate. RADAR data services include optimization of ATC RADAR systems (including United States Air Force (USAF) deployable RADAR systems) in preparation for and to pass Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Flight Checks and for integration of the air picture into ATC towers. The contractor shall provide services supporting both C2 and ATC missions that encompass the delivery of design, engineering and integration, hardware and software installation, distant-end and on-site training, remote monitoring capabilities and assessments, and sustainment and logistics support for all equipment managed under the 9AF (AFCENT) STRAP Program.
