My question is this: 
I manage the Integrated AUTODIN System (IAS) RDT&RE Project.
A task under this project is the Multinet Gatewauy, which the
Air Force is building for us. I, orut odf RADC.  The MG is an
IP gatewaayy which can accomodate nmodate a number of different kinds
of LAN and lonetwork interfaces, LAN and long-haul. It will also be
A-1 multi-certified as a multi-level secure system ttoo the A-1 level.
The DDN Ford Aerospace is the prime contractoer for this, with SDC
as a sub for the certification. Six ADM's will be delivered
to the DDN PMO for T&E. The DDN PMO will be using these in
their security architecture as Guso-called Guard Gateways.

The Aitr Force osis people are submitting an FY87 POM input for
full-scale development (and a limited production run ) in FY88.
ToTo defend their POM submission, they need to 
reference somesome requirements and prospective users.
Hence my note; I'm trying to sound out people on wthe Govreernment net
managers that I can find out about if they might conceivably
be able to use something like this.

I am not looking for moneyfunding. I am looking for potentailial
future requirements. Also, if you anybody wanted to make arrangements
to buy one of these things for their facility, (it would make
a lot of sense as a trusted local compartmented distributor)
we could ;'ll have the be in a position to have contracualtual vegihicles in place
to buy these.


Thank you,
