The Department of Justice, specifically the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), is seeking information from potential vendors regarding the procurement of a Basic Unmanned Aerial System (UAS), specifically a ruggedized, backpack portable quadcopter. The UAS must meet specific requirements, including a minimum flight time of 30 minutes, compliance with the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), an Ingress Protection rating of IP53 or better, video recording capabilities, and an integrated Ground Control Station with a display, all within a target price of $12,000 or less. This initiative is crucial for enhancing the FBI's operational capabilities, and interested parties are invited to submit capability statements by December 23, 2025, and direct any questions to Brian Ames at bames@fbi.gov by December 10, 2025.
