The Department of the Army Materiel Command Communications Electronics Command awarded a $12 million single-award indefinite delivery contract to Atlantic Inertial Systems Inc., a subsidiary of Raytheon Technologies, to supply pitch rate gyroscopes for the UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter. This 5-year firm fixed price contract was awarded in July 2020 without any set-asides.
To date, the Army has issued two delivery orders worth a total of $7.2 million for the gyroscopes, which are used to sense changes in pitch, yaw, and roll rates on the UH-60 platform. The gyroscopes will be delivered between 2020-2024, with work performed at Atlantic Inertial Systems' facility in Cheshire, Connecticut. The company is utilizing several subcontractors, including Tova Industries, PPI/Time Zero, and Senior Operations, to fulfill the contract requirements. This contract supports the Army's need for critical aviation components for the UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter, a key rotorcraft in the military's fleet.
