The Royal Danish Air Force (RDAF) existing terrestrial VHF and UHF radios used for "Ground-Air-Ground" communication are no longer operationally or technically up-to-date.
The purpose of the procurement is thus to replace a number of the radios that are installed at Remote Radio
Sites located at various locations in Denmark. These radios are used by the RDAF Air Control Wing for military
"Ground-Air-Ground" radio communication in secure or non-secure mode of operations in order to be able to
direct, guide, control and command aircrafts. In order to support secure mode operations a number of the radios shall have broadband capability.
The procurement also includes the replacement of both VHF and UHS radios, used by Air Traffic Control at
the military air bases where the radios are used for communication with aircrafts e.g. in relation to take off and landing.
This use of the UHF and VHF radios is essential (flight safety) and operational availability shall be 99,9 % when operating 24 hours per day and 7 days per week.
All the radios are to be interfaces to the operators by a Voice Communication System.
It shall be noticed that the equipment within the scope of this request for Tender shall be purely Commercial
Off the The Shelf, COTS. Commercial Off The Shelf equipment (COTS) is a US Federal Acquisition Regulation term defining a non developmental item that is commercial and sold in substantial quantities in commercial marketplaces, and that can be produced or utilized under government contract in the same precise form as available to the general public.
The procurement will include spare parts and Line Replaceable Units (LRU) spare parts. Additionally the
procurement includes training support and maintenance.
