The anticipated effort is entitled: Fixed Wing Utility Aircraft (FUA) Prototype Flight Demonstration: FUA seeks to integrate a Fixed Wing Utility Aircraft Mission Equipment Package (MEP) onto a Commercial Derivative Aircraft (CDA) platform and demonstrate a flying prototype that meets mission system requirements. The Government will select viable vendors to enter the prototype demonstration phase. The FUA Prototype will be leveraged to evaluate/demonstrate technical requirements, production feasibility, and military application.
