The Authority has a potential requirement for the manufacture and supply of a range of ceremonial saluting natures for use in the 105mm FD L118, 13 Pounder and 3 Pounder ceremonial saluting guns.

At this stage, the following items have been identified, are for information only and are subject to change: - cartridge blank 105MM FD 6OZ GP L48A1 - Build to print, - cartridge blank 3 PR, - cartridge blank 13 PR 4oz, - cartridge blank 13 PR 8oz, - cartridge blank 13 PR 1lb.

The Contract will be 3 years Firm, with Options to buy quantities of the ammunition for an additional 2 years.
