NAVAIRSYSCOM intends to issue Basic Ordering Agreements (BOA) to provide PMA-263 with Small Tactical Unmanned Aircraft System (STUAS) systems in accordance with the requirements contained herein.
PEO (U&W), PMA-263 is seeking industry inputs to identify Small Tactical Unmanned Aircraft System (STUAS) systems capable of providing Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) in day and night operations, and in adverse environmental conditions.
