    Description

    The Department of Defense, specifically the Naval Air Warfare Center Air Division, is seeking sources for the development of a Departure Alerting System and Outside Air Temperature Display for F-5 aircraft. The primary objective is to establish a pilot cuing method that enhances aircraft departure anticipation while minimizing false warnings, with a critical performance threshold requiring effective anticipation within three to five seconds and a false warning rate of 10% or less. This procurement is vital for improving aviation safety and operational efficiency, ensuring that missed warnings are ideally zero and that the system integrates seamlessly with existing aircraft systems without the need for gyro or inertial navigation components. Interested parties can reach out to Kristin Nelson at kristin.a.nelson13.civ@us.navy.mil or Catrina Farrell at catrina.m.farrell.civ@us.navy.mil for further details.

    The document outlines the requirements and thresholds for a pilot cuing method aimed at enhancing aircraft departure anticipation and minimizing false warnings. Key objectives include establishing an aural and/or visual cuing method that aligns with specified thresholds. Departure anticipation must occur within three to five seconds to be deemed effective. Additionally, it mandates stringent controls on false positives and negatives, stipulating that nuisance warnings should occur at a rate of 10% or less, while missed warnings should ideally be zero. The integration with aircraft systems is noted but does not necessitate any gyro or inertial navigation components. This file serves as a technical guideline within federal RFPs, ensuring that potential contractors understand the precise performance metrics expected for aviation safety improvements.
