The U.S. Air Force Sustainment Center awarded a $701,580 firm fixed-price purchase order to Chelton Avionics, Inc., doing business as Canyon Aeroconnect, for the procurement of 11 RT-5000 radios in support of the TH-1H helicopter aircraft program. The contract, which carries an ultimate completion date of July 22, 2026, will be performed at Canyon Aeroconnect's facility in Prescott, Arizona. Canyon Aeroconnect, a subsidiary of TransDigm Group Inc., is an established aerospace electronics manufacturer with extensive experience in repair, maintenance, and procurement of sophisticated avionics equipment. The company holds multiple Indefinite Delivery Contracts with federal agencies, including a $3.51 million IDC with the Air Force Sustainment Center for repairing avionic components on TH-1H helicopters, positioning it as a strategic provider of mission-critical aviation electronics support.

This non-set-aside procurement reflects Canyon Aeroconnect's competitive capabilities in the federal marketplace and its specialized expertise with RT-5000 software-defined APCO P25 transceivers. The TH-1H helicopter platform, operated by the Army as a utility and training aircraft, relies on reliable communication systems to execute its missions. The award demonstrates the contractor's standing as both a prime contractor and subcontractor to major aerospace and defense companies, reinforcing its role as a key supplier of avionics components and technical support across multiple federal agencies including the U.S. Coast Guard, Naval Air Systems Command, and the Air Force.
