The 71st Rescue Squadron (71 RQS) requires the replacement of three mission-essential Utility Terrain Vehicles {UTVs) to restore operational capability following the loss of existing assets due to severe weather damage and heavy utilization during previous deployments. These vehicles directly support personnel transport, equipment movement, and mission execution in diverse and demanding environments. To maintain operational readiness and ensure seamless integration into existing squadron processes, the replacement UTVs must align with established fleet standards. Procuring vehicles with systems and components common to the squadron's current inventory provides substantial logistical and operational benefits, including streamlined maintenance procedures, reduced repair-part variability, and improved vehicle availability through faster turnaround times. Minimum Salient Characteristics: The Government requires UTVs that meet or exceed the following minimum essential specifications: • Must be POLARIS • Engine: Diesel-powered engine (as required by the UTC) • Capacity: Seating for five personnel • Cargo: Open rear cargo bed capable of transporting aircrew equipment • Cab: Fully enclosed cab with fixed windshield and manual windows • Steering: Electronic power steering • Braking: Mechanical parking brake • Suspension: Minimum 9 inches of suspension travel to ensure safe and reliable operation across varied terrain These characteristics are required for the vehicle to function properly and to be mission operational.
