    Description

    The Department of Defense, through the Naval Sea Systems Command, is issuing a Request for Solutions (RFS) for the Ship Antenna Optimization project, aimed at enhancing the performance of shipboard antennas. The project seeks to develop high-gain directional antennas that can be permanently installed on ships, addressing the current limitations of existing backpack deployable systems that utilize omnidirectional antennas insufficient for mission requirements. This initiative is part of the Strategic & Spectrum Missions Advanced Resilient Trusted Systems (S2MARTS) consortium, and interested vendors must be members of this consortium to participate. Responses to this opportunity are due by February 10, 2025, and inquiries can be directed to Kayla Jones at kayla.n.jones34.civ@us.navy.mil or by phone at 812-381-7162.
