About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Aviation has published a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for the procurement of Digitally Tuned Oscillators (DTO) for the AN/ALR-56M Electronic Warfare Weapon System used in F-16 Blocks C/D and C-130J aircraft. The contract was awarded to General Microwave Corporation as the original equipment manufacturer under a Firm Fixed Price Requirements contract with a basic one-year term plus four one-year ordering periods, running from July 31, 2025 through July 30, 2030. The sole source justification is based on General Microwave being the only viable source capable of manufacturing the DTO because they own the Technical Data Package and the government lacks the internal drawings required for competitive bidding. Alternative approaches such as purchasing the data package were unsuccessful, and reverse engineering would require approximately 3+ years and cost an estimated $1M. The DTO is critical for maintaining the AN/ALR-56M Weapon System, as without these components, aircraft would be grounded due to mission-impaired capability while awaiting parts. While the contract value was redacted from the available documentation, the award was made on September 22, 2025, by DLA Aviation at Robins Air Force Base.
