Due: August 7, 2026
The US Navy and US Coast Guard currently have several classes of ships with Gun Weapon Systems (GWS) using MK20 MOD 1 Electro-Optical Sight Systems (EOSS). The current EOSS imposes obsolescence risks and issues which are exacerbated by the limitation of sources and current architecture. Updated performance criteria are needed for incorporation including Modular Open System Architecture (MOSA), Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF), and Motion Industry Standards Board (MISB) standards.
Responding to this opportunity requires membership in the Expeditionary Missions Consortium – Crane. This Consortium releases numerous solicitations throughout the year, so even if this opportunity may not end up being right for you, we strongly encourage you to join, so you are ready for the next opportunity.
