Navy seeks new C4 support for Pacific Command

The Navy’s U.S. Pacific Command near Pearl Harbor wants command, control, communication and cyber (C4) support across a range of mission areas, from contract management to cybersecurity.

In a sources sought notice, the Naval Supply Systems Command Fleet Logistics Center in Hawaii is considering a contract to provide a broad range of IT services, including:

  • Contract management
  • Information system management
  • IT services
  • Information system administration
  • Knowledge, information and application services
  • Cybersecurity and information assurance services
  • Information system support
  • IT service management
  • C4 capabilities to support the USPACOM mission.

USPACOM is looking for contractors with established indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity contracts or IT-centric governmentwide acquisition services (GWACs) contracts. It is also searching for potential small businesses in a variety of socio-economic categories that can handle the work.

USPACOM anticipates a five-year contract.

The USPACOM C4 Directorate integrates and synchronizes cyberspace operations to provide assured theater command and control and information-sharing with joint, coalition, partner forces and organizations.

The sources sought notice was released Nov. 27. Responses are due by Dec. 11.

The Oryx Handbook of Iranian Drones

Image
The goal of this list is to comprehensively catalogue Iran's past and current inventory of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and their armament. In an effort to streamline the list and avoid unnecessary confusion, this list only includes military drones associated with Iran's defence industry or military-grade UAVs with at least some chance of entering service. Notes:  - If several configurations of a drone with one designation are known, they are added as such.  - The part within the apostrophes refers to other designations or an unofficial designation. -  UAVs that did not enter service or have yet to enter service have been placed in the prototype category. - When a type is dual-capable, it is added in both respective categories. - Dubious claims are referred to as ''claimed to be capable''. - Although several types of Iranian UAVs have been sighted in Syria and Iraq, the foreign service section of this handbook only includes those confirmed to be in s

This Equation Shows You Can't Quantify Everything

Yeah, I used a clickbaity headline. So sue me. Recently I went on an extensive rant about the fundamental assumptions of science. One of them, I said, was that things have to be measurable. And that's basically true, I think... but there are interesting subtleties. You might well be familiar with the weirdness of the quantum realms, as in the double-slit experiment where "particles" can apparently be in two places at once. What you might be less aware of is that much, much larger things can be just as hard to measure. You really don't need carefully controlled laboratory conditions to see how bizarre reality can get. Measuring some things is hard... In astronomy, if you're hunting for galaxies in a new data set, you have to try and estimate these things called completeness and reliability . They're quite simple concepts but they have very strict meanings - thankfully, for once, quite intuitive ones. Consider a naturalist trying to identify some meerk
