1.0 Scope

This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the requirements necessary to perform non-recurring and recurring efforts required to fabricate, assemble, and support prototyping/system integration/installation of Engineering Changes to aircraft designated by the H-53 Program Office, PMA-261. This contract includes tasking associated with installation of modifications on aircraft intended for Foreign Military Sales (FMS).

Planned aircraft installation work will be conducted aboard U.S. Government installations at both CONUS and OCONUS locations including but not limited to:

MCAS New River, NC MCAS Miramar, CA NAS Patuxent River, MD NAS Norfolk, VA JRB McGuire, NJ MCAS Yuma, AZ MCAS Futenma, Okinawa, Japan Pohang, Korea Bahrain

1.1 Statement of Problem(s):

CH-53E, CH-53K®, and MH-53E require depot modifications to support fleet requirements.

1.2 System Description:

1.2.1 The CH-53E Super Stallion has proven to be extraordinarily relevant to the execution of our national security strategy, Navy and Marine Corps warfighting concepts and the associated need for capable heavy lift. The Super Stallion incorporates Global Positioning System (GPS), Forward-Looking Infrared Radar (FLIR), Aviator Night Vision Imaging Systems Heads Up Display (ANVIS-HUD) sensors and carries three (3) 50 caliber guns (as a mission kit). Communications include Ultra High Frequency (UHF)/Very High Frequency (VHF)/High Frequency (HF) radios, secure communications capability, and Identified Friend or Foe (IFF).

1.2.2 The CH-53K King Stallion™ is the United States Marine Corps’ (USMC) heavy lift replacement for the CH-53E. The most powerful helicopter in the Department of Defense, the CH-53K is a new-build helicopter that will expand the fleet’s ability to move more material, more rapidly throughout the area of responsibility using proven and mature technologies. Designed to lift nearly 14 tons (27,000 lbs/12,247 kg) at a mission radius of 110 nautical miles (203 km), in Navy high/hot environments, the CH-53K is designed to lift triple the baseline CH-53E lift capability with an equivalent logistics shipboard footprint, lower operating costs per aircraft, and less direct maintenance man hours per flight hour.

1.2.3 The MH-53E Sea Dragon incorporates Global Positioning System (GPS), Doppler radar, and an Approach/Hover/Tow Coupler. Communications include Ultra High Frequency (UHF)/ Very High Frequency (VHF)/ High Frequency (HF) radios, secure communications capability, and Identified Friend or Foe (IFF). The MH-53E Sea Dragon will perform the Airborne Mine Countermeasures (AMCM) mission until at least 2027.
