About this file

This document is a Questions and Answers (Q&A) file dated 31 March 2025 for a potential F-16 aircraft component repair solicitation. The Q&A addresses four key questions about the repair effort for the Accessory Drive Gearbox (ADG) and Jet Fuel Starter (JFS). Specifically, the answers clarify that: (1) the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) stance on continued repairs is uncertain, (2) the parts fly with the aircraft and airworthiness is necessary, (3) the OEM is Collins Aerospace and Pratt & Whitney, and (4) the solicitation is seeking repairs to the ADG and JFS, not the test stand. Interested parties with additional questions are directed to contact Anna Bournakis at anna.bournakis@us.af.mil, with weekly updates planned starting 31 March 2025.
