About this award

Rockwell Collins, Inc. (operating as Collins Aerospace Government Systems) was awarded a $145M cost-plus-no-fee definitive contract by the Naval Air Systems Command for Very Low Frequency (VLF) Modernization non-recurring engineering efforts. The contract, awarded February 22, 2022, with ultimate completion by September 30, 2026, supports the design and development of an airborne VLF system for integration onto C-130J-30 aircraft in support of the Take Charge And Move Out Recapitalization program. This modification updates the Statement of Work attachments, incorporates an updated security classification guide dated April 9, 2025, and provides public release authorization documentation. The work encompasses size, weight, and power-cooling optimization of the VLF design and delivery of VLF transmit laboratory qualification kits. No set-aside designation was used for this procurement, reflecting Rockwell Collins' status as the incumbent sole designer, developer, and manufacturer of high-power VLF systems.

The contract involves four identified subcontractors providing specialized components and services: Arm Inc. supplies software development tools and licenses; Viewpoint Systems LLC provides ruggedized mission displays (VPT-24HD-MIL series); Milcots LLC contributes hardware design, software design, testing, project management, prototype development, and environmental qualification efforts; and J&K Electronics Inc. (M3 Technology), a women-owned small business, supplies specialized interconnect cables and electronic components including analog input/output boards and digital I/O components. This layered contractor team demonstrates the complex technical coordination required to modernize critical military communication systems for extended operational range and capability on transport aircraft.
