About this file
This document is a Special Packaging Instruction (SPI) for an Electron Tube, specifically detailing comprehensive packaging, preservation, and shipping requirements for a military electronic component. The SPI provides explicit instructions for packaging the electron tube, including detailed specifications for cushioning, saddles, blocks, and container assembly, with precise dimensional requirements for each component. The packaging method follows military standards MIL-STD-129 and MIL-STD-2073, and includes specific requirements for preservation, marking, and international shipping, such as heat treatment of wooden packaging materials to prevent invasive species transmission. The document includes 10 detailed sheets with technical drawings, dimensional specifications, and assembly instructions for protecting the sensitive electronic component during transport and storage.
The packaging instructions are part of a proposed sole-source contract by the Air Force Materiel Command for repairing Electron Tubes (NSN 5960-00-078-0684), with Microwave Power Products (MPP) identified as the original equipment manufacturer. The anticipated contract includes multiple Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) for different repair levels: Test, Evaluation & Examination (TT&E), Minor Repair, Major Repair, and Total Rebuild, with 6 units per CLIN. The solicitation is set for response by 15 August 2025, with an anticipated award date of 30 September 2025, and allows for international participation under free trade agreements.
