DLA Troop Support is seeking industry feedback from interested parties concerning the manufacturing of the Rapid In-theatre Deployment (RAID 7H) NSN 5450-99-821-3761. The RAID 7H is a patented storage and release container which was developed to reduce the logistical burden of supporting force protection missions on expeditionary operations, such as the construction of forward operating and patrol bases. The RAID 7H utilizes a specially designed and engineered ISO container that conforms to all ISO stacking and transportation standards and this patented configuration has the potential to remove 50% of all road traffic involved in delivering defensive barriers to the end-user. With a purposely designed release mechanism to allow the rapid deployment of pre-joined standard or recoverable MIL units, RAID 7H enables curves and corners to be easily formed. Some or all of the contents of the container can be dispensed with one continuous stream. The RAID 7H system was developed to deploy over a 1000 feet of MIL 7 in under 60 seconds. Additional units can be joined to create vast boundary walls or perimeters with entry control points. Besides the OEM, there is no known alternate source that has the capability to produce the RAID 7H system. Hesco Bastion LTD developed this item and owns the complete technical data rights. This information is proprietary and the Government does not possess the detailed technical documentation that describes all required form, fit, and function characteristics of this item.
