- Description
- Request For Information (RFI) Design a prototype personnel transport system to autonomously transport two warfighters and their gear over rugged terrain, quickly and without detection. Such a device is envisioned to be used in special operations by a small crew of men in a forward insertion and recovery type mission. Specific requirements include: • Transport at least two people and their equipment (700 lbs. total) without being detected. • Provide transport and safe return over a distance of at least 30 kilometers over rugged, mountainous terrain. • Permit packaging for delivery or shipping in the CV-22 cargo hold. • Be able to transition from storage (i.e., from shipping configuration) to operation in under four (4) hours. • Operate autonomously in day/night and inclement weather conditions. • Consider OSHA and Air Force safety standards for manned vehicles.
