About this IDV

HII Mission Technologies Corp, a subsidiary of Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc., was awarded a $10 million Basic Ordering Agreement by the Aeronautical Systems Center, a component of the United States Air Force, for the BIG SAFARI program with an award date of March 19, 2021, and ultimate completion date of March 19, 2026. The agreement represents a single-award, unrestricted contract vehicle with no small business set-aside designation. The BIG SAFARI program is a classified Air Force initiative focused on specialized airborne intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities and aircraft modification efforts. Primary places of performance for task orders issued under this agreement include West McLean, Virginia; Elkridge, Maryland; and Huntsville, Alabama, reflecting the distributed nature of design, engineering, integration, and manufacturing activities supporting the program.

Delivery orders issued under this Basic Ordering Agreement demonstrate a diverse scope of services encompassing aircraft modification design and implementation, specialized pod kit development (including the Heresey and Heresey II pod kits), ground infrastructure integration, technical support, help desk functions, and specialized equipment manufacturing and engineering. Pricing structures across the nine task orders range from firm fixed price to cost-plus-fixed-fee arrangements, with individual delivery order values ranging from approximately $278,000 to $16.8 million and completion dates extending through April 30, 2028. HII Mission Technologies has engaged multiple subcontractors including Zivko Aeronautics Inc., Integral Components, Inc., Wel-Fab Defense LLC, Aevex Aerospace LLC, and Eastern Lift Truck Co Inc., many of which are small businesses providing composite manufacturing, cable assemblies, specialized containers, and aviation support services. The contract vehicles and associated task orders underscore HII Mission Technologies' role as a primary systems integrator supporting complex, specialized defense capabilities within the Air Force's intelligence and reconnaissance portfolio.
