- This modification (04) to previous special notice for the request for information posting for Solicitation W900KK-12-R-XXXX (posted 19 March 2012) provides for the following answers to questions received. Question 1. While I understand that the MD500 FTD and CMS are to be reconfigurable to all MD500 series aircraft, I cannot find "paragraph 1 above" as stated in the first paragraph of Attachment 1 and Attachment 2. Which variants of the MD500 are to be represented? Answer: MD 500M, MD 500MD and MD 500MD/TOW. This is very preliminary and exact configurations are not available at this time. Question 2. Following on from the above, what aircraft or configuration are the Harbin Z-9W FTD and CMS to be reconfigurable to? Answer: Z-9 and Z9W. This is very preliminary and exact configurations are not available at this time. Question 3. Could you please clarify whether the Mi171 should also be included (with the SA 330G Puma) in the first paragraph of the last page of Attachment 1? Answer: Yes, the Mi-171 is a transport version only. It is unknown at this time whether the aircraft will be armed in the future. Every attempt will be made to obtain this info from the Kenyan Government if we receive a further requirement on this/these actions.
