The Worldwide Airlift Services Program 135 (WASP-135) is a multiple-award indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle managed by the United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) to provide comprehensive global airlift services. The contract supports fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft operations across both military and commercial environments, encompassing a wide range of aviation support capabilities. Services include passenger and cargo transportation, medical evacuation, air ambulance, sling-load cargo operations, supply delivery, and other specialized air mobility requirements for Department of Defense (DoD) and federal agencies. The contract has a total shared ceiling of $5.7 billion and was originally solicited to support global transportation and mobility missions with a five-year base performance period.

Task orders under WASP-135 demonstrate significant geographic and operational diversity, with recent awards ranging from $2,500 minimum guarantee contracts to substantial multi-million dollar task orders supporting specific regional missions. Notable task orders include a $154.1 million delivery order for rotary-wing airlift in North and West Africa, a $79.1 million dedicated air passenger service for U.S. Africa Command, and a $51.6 million worldwide airlift support for U.S. Marine Corps rotational forces in Darwin, Australia. Frequent prime contractors include Berry Aviation, Phoenix Air Group, Columbia Helicopters, Air Center Helicopters, and Mountain Aviation. Most task orders are firm-fixed-price and do not utilize specific set-aside designations, with performance locations spanning global regions including Africa, Australia, the Philippines, Romania, and various U.S. locations. Funding agencies include U.S. Transportation Command, Navy, Air Force, Army, and other DoD components.
