The Department of National Defense (DND), in a supplemental
bid bulletin, has announced that the pre-bid conference for its
PhP4,968,000,000 close-air support aircraft (CASA) project has been scheduled
this coming Sept. 16.
It will be held at the DND Bidding and Awards Committee
conference room, basement right wing, DND
Building , Camp
Aguinaldo , Quezon City
It was postponed pending the signing of the Armed Forces of
the Philippines (AFP) Modernization Program.
The DND is planning to acquire six CAS aircraft to replace
or beef up the Air Force's existing Rockwell OV-10 "Bronco" turboprop
attack planes.
CAS refers to capability to provide air support to infantry
and naval units in contact with the enemy.
The contract includes integrated logistic support system.
Winning bidders must be able to deliver the aircraft within
540 calendar days from contract effectivity.
Participants in the DND's CAS project must have completed a
similar program within the last 10 years.
The CAS aircraft must be used by the countries offering and
manufacturing them.
