NAVAIR posts RCS C5ISR RFP

On October 2, the Naval Air Systems Command posted a request for proposal for Lifetime Support Engineering (LSE) and In-Service Engineering (ISE) for Radio Communication System (RCS)/Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Combat Systems, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) systems. Proposals are due by 11:00 a.m. on November 5.

This is a Request for Proposal (RFP).
