Description
W8476-206234/C Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) is requesting Industry feedback regarding the Light Forces Enhancement (LFE) project for the Government of Canada (GC), the Department of National Defence (DND), and the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF). The Canadian Light Forces (LF) need new light tactical personnel and cargo carrying capabilities. These capabilities will move soldiers and equipment across complex terrain which currently can only be reached on foot. It will lighten CAF soldiers’ on-person combat burden by carrying additional equipment and supplies, and will cover a larger area of operation through increased speed, range, and duration. This powerful, lightweight solution is expected to operate in domestic and expeditionary deployments, up to and including high threat environments.
