1.3 Background:

The F-15 Aircraft Intermediate Shop (AIS) Test Equipment is required to ensure proper operational capability of both Air Force and FMS F-15 aircraft avionics and radar systems. The F-15 AIS Test Equipment was developed in the early 1980s to provide depot and field level support to the highly complex F-15 avionics and radar Line Replaceable Units (LRU) and Shop Replaceable Units (SRU). The F-15 AIS Test Equipment was originally designed/developed and integrated by Honeywell International, Inc. over thirty (30) years ago using 1980's parts and technology. Throughout the history of these systems, Honeywell International, Inc. (for this National Stock Number) has been the provider of the majority of the parts and services necessary to sustain the F-15 AIS Test Equipment. In the past few years, Honeywell International, is the Sole Source Provider for this NSN.
