The United States Army seeks innovative solutions for a Radio Frequency Delivered Effects Platform Portable 2.0 (RDEP-P2) under a Commercial Solutions Opening. The proposed system must be a flexible and efficient CEMA system capable of integrating various payload cards such as general purpose processing, specialized graphical processing, storage, networking, RF switching, SDRs, position/navigation/timing, tactical radio communications, and ASICs. These functional cards should be combined in mission-specific configurations to address operational requirements for portable, ground and airborne-vehicular, and fixed site CMOSS systems.
The system must be CMOSS-compatible and fully compliant with Vehicle Integration for C4ISR/EW Interoperability (VICTORY) and Modular Open Radio Frequency (RF) Architecture (MORA) standards. It should feature secure and adaptable radio frequency capabilities, provide operational versatility in both unclassified and classified environments, and maintain a lightweight, portable design with a total component weight under 100 pounds. The configuration must enable rapid transition between vehicle-mounted and stationary positions within 10 minutes by a single operator. An intuitive graphical user interface (GUI), integrating with military solutions like the Tactical Assault Kit (TAK), is required to improve situational awareness and streamline workflows.
Direct re-provisioning of CMOSS cards within the chassis must be possible, minimizing tactical maintenance complexity. The system should enable remote control and over-the-air (OTA) operation, as well as seamless interoperability with existing U.S. Army IP communications platforms, potentially removing the need for external radio systems. Supporting OTA data transmission across relevant Army Programs of Record is also essential. Offerors are encouraged, but not required, to propose the integration of a Blue small Unmanned Aerial System (sUAS) to augment the platform's range and effectiveness.
This opportunity represents a significant advance in tactical technology, offering robust, secure, and adaptable solutions to support the evolving demands of military operations.
Best-fit vendors:
• Experience in military-grade RF and CEMA systems
• Proven expertise in CMOSS, VICTORY, and MORA standard compliance
• Ability to develop portable, modular electronic platforms
• Prior performance in Department of Defense contracts
• Capacity for rapid prototyping and secure communications integration
