About this award
The Air Force Sustainment Center awarded a $7.24 million definitive firm-fixed-price contract to Allclear Aerospace & Defense, Inc., a non-small business, for SATCOM antenna and satellite data unit equipment on July 30, 2026, with no set-aside used. The ceiling value is $7,243,491.35, and ultimate completion is January 25, 2027. Place of performance is Hollywood, Florida 33027.
The equipment supports the C-5 Avionics Modernization Program, a Major Defense Acquisition Program under Acquisition Category IC. The originating pre-solicitation came from DLA Aviation's Weapons Support Contracting Office, was posted December 19, 2025, and closed January 8, 2026. It covers two items. The first is a SATCOM antenna (part number 1242-A-0010-21), an ARINC 781 high gain antenna that transmits voice and data from moving aircraft via the Inmarsat network with multi-channel Swift Broadband support. The second is a satellite data unit (part number 1252-A-3800-01), which provides standalone cabin satellite communication, interfaces with the audio system and Flight Management System, and enables pilot-initiated dialing through headsets.
The pre-solicitation stated intent to award a sole source to EMS Technologies Canada, Ltd, a Honeywell International Inc. subsidiary identified as the original equipment manufacturer and the only known source holding the technical data. The notice also solicited other parties that could demonstrate alternative technical capability.
