The Air Force requires passenger baggage X-Ray machines to ensure passenger service agents are not required to hand search all hand-carried and checked baggage to meet United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) and AMC passenger baggage screening requirements. Additionally, X-Ray screening technology provides a second level of screening to ensure safety of flight.
The machines must be on the approved Air Cargo Screening Technology List (ACSTL) as qualified TSA approved security programs. Devise purchased cannot be on the Conditionally Approved or the Grandfathered list.

Device must be capable of displaying images scanned from at least two perspectives.
