Summary

The B1-B Decoy Update opportunity is a Sources Sought notice issued by the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) to gather information from potential contractors capable of providing engineering solutions for an update, companion, or replacement of the ALE-50 Towed Decoy system. This initiative aims to enhance the frequency coverage of the B-1B's self-protection systems against current and emerging threats. Contractors with expertise in electronic warfare, particularly those who can propose solutions that integrate with existing systems while minimizing modifications, are encouraged to respond. The project seeks high Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) for rapid development and may involve both recoverable and expendable decoy systems. Interested parties should be prepared to provide detailed information about their capabilities, including technical specifications and integration considerations, to support the Air Force's evaluation of potential solutions.
