Requirements: The
objective of the Geometry Optimization and Sensing with Integration and Flight (GOSWIFT) effort is to design, manufacture, and deliver an aerodynamic test pod that maintains the Outer Mold Line (OML) of a standard centerline 610-gallon external fuel tank used on an F-15D aircraft. The pod will support aerodynamic and flight test activities while providing internal volume for instrumentation and test equipment. The intent of the effort is for the pod to conform to the design provided by NASA and for industry to collaborate with the program engineering team to ensure the NASA produced design, which meets structural, aerodynamic, and integration
requirements, remains manufacturable within schedule constraints (iv) Delivery Date and Location: The
