The government is accepting responses to this Sources Sought Synopsis through March 23, 2026, with submissions directed to Contracting Officer Michael Shand at michael.shand@us.af.mil, and both large and small businesses are encouraged to participate, including joint ventures and teaming arrangements. Evaluation will focus on documented production and repair data, past project experience with similar complexity, repair and maintenance procedure development experience, and the commerciality of offered products and services.

Contractors are required to provide one-year system warranties and two-year extended service warranties on all components, with an optional five-year maintenance proposal available upon request.
