About this award
The National Interagency Fire Center awarded a firm fixed-price delivery order valued at $338,607.30 to Aero Air, LLC on January 2, 2026, with performance extending through January 20, 2026. Aero Air, a self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Hillsboro, Oregon, will provide aerial firefighting and aviation support services under this delivery order. The work will be performed in Hillsboro, Oregon and is issued under the Forest Service Airtanker Services 2023 master indefinite delivery contract, a $1.44 billion multiple-award vehicle set aside for small businesses that extends through December 31, 2033. This delivery order represents one of numerous task orders Aero Air has received from the National Interagency Fire Center to deploy its fleet of turbine-powered fixed-wing aircraft, primarily Lockheed P-3 Orion and Electra models, for critical aerial firefighting capabilities.
Aero Air has established itself as a primary provider of specialized large airtanker services to federal wildfire management operations, with delivery orders historically ranging from under $1,000 to approximately $49 million. The company's contract performance encompasses exclusive use and call-when-needed airtanker services, including aerial fire retardant drops, reconnaissance missions, cargo transport, and personnel transport in support of wildfire suppression across multiple jurisdictions. Beyond the current delivery order, Aero Air holds three additional significant federal master contracts with the National Interagency Fire Center: the $350 million Call When Needed 2.1 Airtanker Services contract, the $100 million Next Generation Large Airtanker Services 3.0 program, and a $50 million Next Generation 1.0 contract, collectively positioning the company as a critical asset in the federal government's comprehensive wildland fire management strategy.
