1 Scope This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the work to be performed by the contractor to identify, develop, integrate, and test a Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) Iridium Satellite Communication (SATCOM) system to replace the current C/KC-135 International Marine/Maritime Satellite (INMARSAT) satellite system on an estimated 359 USAF aircraft and up to 10 Foreign Military Sales (FMS) aircraft. The SATCOM replacement must be compatible with both Block 40 and Block 45 aircraft. Work will include integration of the COTS SATCOM system in Collins Aerospace’s Software Integration Facility (SIL) in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, support of aircraft testing, production of Group A and Group B kits, as well as Contractor Field Team (CFT) installation of the SATCOM replacement on aircraft. The contractor shall also produce a comprehensive engineering package to support Programmed Depot Maintenance (PDM) installation of the satellite system.

Background The C/KC-135 currently utilizes the INMARSAT organization’s Aeronautical Intermediate (Aero-I) service as part of its Global Air Traffic Management (GATM) system. Aero-I provides oceanic Controller/Pilot Data Link Communications (CPDLC) to Air Traffic Control (ATC) and Aircraft Communications Addressing/Reporting System (ACARS) Beyond Line-Of-Sight (BLOS) messages to 618 Tanker Airlift Control Center (TACC) Global Decision Support System. The SRT-2000 SATCOM Transceiver Part Number (P/N) 822-1346-001 and IGA-2000 SATCOM Antenna P/N: 822-1369-001 are installed on the aircraft and provide the required communications path. Both of these items are becoming increasingly unsupportable, causing increased maintenance and Mission Impaired Capability Awaiting Parts (MICAP) hours.

2 Applicable Documents The following documents are applicable to this SOW.

3 Requirements The contractor shall accomplish the integration, test, procurement and installation of an Iridium SATCOM replacement system for Block 40 and Block 45 C/KC-135s. The contractor shall meet all of the requirements detailed in the C/KC-135 Aero-I SATCOM Replacement Program System Requirements Document (SRD). The contractor shall provide two permanently modified aircraft as a first article delivery for one (1) Block 40 and one (1) Block 45 configuration. The contractor shall include small business participation of at least 8% of the total proposal price.

Group A and B Kits

The government defines a Group A kit as consisting of cables, wiring harness, antenna mount, and associated hardware. The government defines a Group B kit as consisting of a transceiver and antenna. The contractor shall ensure both Group A and Group B kits are free of Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS). The contractor shall deliver DMSMS reports as required. The USAF requirement is based on a 10 percent sparing for the Group B kit and no sparing for the Group A kit. The FMS requirement is based on one (1) spare Group B kit for each country and no sparing for the Group A kit. The contractor shall provide required kitting as directed by delivery orders.

(A044)

Open Skies Aircraft The contractor shall integrate the proposed solution on the two (2) Open Skies OC-135 aircraft.

However, integration with the OC-135 shall be incorporated as part of the Block 40 engineering package. OC-135 installation will be accomplished in PDM, however the government reserves the right to change the installation method to CFT.

Foreign Military Sales (FMS) Participation The contractor shall plan to integrate the proposed solution on up to 10 aircraft in support of the following FMS customers:

Country # of Aircraft Configuration Software Version

Turkey 7 Block 40 40.6.3

FMS participation in the program has not yet been determined.

Aircraft Integration and Installation Strategy The contractor shall provide the aircraft transceiver and antenna integration strategy at the Preliminary Design Review (PDR).

The contractor shall consider utilization of Contractor Field Teams (CFT) and Programmed Depot Maintenance (PDM). The government will schedule and conduct PDM installations. The contractor shall produce and deliver Group A kits and Group B kits as ordered according to the established delivery schedule. The government intent is to utilize the maximum number of PDM for organic installation during years 3-5 of the contract, which equates to 75 aircraft per year for a total of 225 aircraft. The government intent is the remaining 134 installations shall occur via CFT.

The contractor’s strategy shall include the following analyses:

a. Structural

b. Electrical load

c. Antenna fluid dynamics

d. Spectrum analysis of the Electromagnetic Interference/Electromagnetic

Compatibility (EMI/EMC) characteristics of the replacement antenna

The contractor shall modify one (1) Block 40 and one (1) Block 45 test line for integration testing at a time which conforms to the Integrated Program Management Plan (IPMP). The remaining two (2) test lines shall be modified by the end of the contract delivery schedule, as the SIL testing schedule allows.

d) Tailor CNS/ATM matrices for Iridium satellite communications, and ensure KC- 135 CNS/ATM recertification. The government will acquire the CNS/ATM certification in accordance with AFI 63-137 using the contractor-provided matrices. (A020)

e) The contractor shall integrate Iridium SATCOM capabilities into the Block 40 and Block 45 C/KC-135 aircraft and produce a black label Operational Flight Program (OFP) software release for each aircraft block. The Block 40 configuration shall be baselined on OFP 40.6.3 and included in OFP 40.7. The Block 45 configuration shall be baselined on OFP 45.1.1 and included in OFP 45.3.

Once installed, all delivered hardware shall remain in the SIL as government property.

Software integration efforts for FMS aircraft are as required and in addition to the above effort as directed by delivery order.

The government defines blue label software as ready for Formal Qualification Test (FQT). The government defines red label software as ready for Developmental Test.

Black label software is representative of the final product configuration for the program.

Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) A list of data requirements contained in this SOW can be found in Table 1 and each SOW paragraph references specific data requirements at the end of each applicable paragraph.

The contractor shall upload all CDRL deliverables into Lifecycle Management Program (LCMP). The government will provide access to LCMP not later than ten (10) business days after contract award.
