About this award
Defense Systems And Solutions (DSS), a Huntsville, Alabama-based small disadvantaged business, was awarded a $14.8 million cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order on September 21, 2020, to apply Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System (APKWS) and anti-jamming GPS capabilities to MD530F helicopters. The effort, with an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2026, represents a competitive 8(a) set-aside contract funded by the Program Executive Office (PEO) Aviation, a component of the Department of Defense's aviation modernization initiatives. DSS will lead the integration of these advanced avionics and weapon systems onto the light utility helicopters, with MD Helicopters, LLC serving as a major subcontractor to supply materials and components in support of the prime contract as of June 2025.
This modernization effort enhances the operational capability of MD530F helicopters by integrating precision-guided munitions technology and GPS capabilities resistant to electronic warfare jamming. The APKWS system represents a proven precision weapon solution that increases targeting accuracy while reducing collateral damage, while anti-jamming GPS capabilities strengthen navigation and targeting reliability in contested environments. By leveraging DSS's demonstrated expertise in helicopter upgrades and avionics integration alongside MD Helicopters' extensive knowledge of the MD530F platform, this contract supports the military's broader strategy of modernizing existing rotorcraft fleets with contemporary sensor and weapon technologies to extend platform relevance and operational effectiveness.
