About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Robins Air Force Base is conducting market research to develop and test material changes for seven specific part numbers associated with the conveyor guides within the F-15E Ammunition Container, NSN 1005-01-298-2522, Part Number 100029110. The material change will involve replacing the existing aluminum alloy conveyor guides with titanium guides. The development and testing process will include bond testing, creating drawings, an Engineer Change Proposal, container development, and container validation. The planned service life of the F-15E is until FY 2041.

This opportunity is not set-aside, and the government intends to award a sole source contract to General Dynamics-OTS due to limitations in technical data and engineering specifics. Responses to the capability survey must be received by November 15, 2024. The government has not provided any information about potential award values or budget ranges.

Notice text

The Government is conducting market research to develop and test material changes for seven specific part numbers associated with the conveyor guides (10029084, 10029085, 10029098, 10029211-1, 10029211-2, 10029211-3, 10029211-4) within the F-15E Ammunition Container, NSN 1005-01-298-2522, Part Number 100029110.

Conveyor Guides (10029084, 10029085, 10029098, 10029211-1, 10029211-2, 10029211-3, 10029211-4)

The Ammunition Structure Assembly Container is for the storage of 20mm caliber ammunition in its single bay design. Live and expended rounds are moved through the ammunition container by an endless loop carrier belt assembly. Rollers attached to the ammunition carriers, guide and control the carrier belt assembly though parallel tracks within the ammunition container. Complete round control is maintained by the cradling action of these ammunition carriers during straight line runs. Turn around sprockets are used to control the carrier at turn around points. Turn around cartridge guides provide guidance to each round as the round travels through the ammunition carriers, which open during turn around. The three sprockets beneath the second loop are the loading access unit which provides an interface for loading and downloading the system. These requirements are military unique and are not available in the commercial market sector. 

The engineering service will involve the development and testing of material changes for seven specific part numbers associated with the conveyor guides (10029084, 10029085, 10029098, 10029211-1, 10029211-2, 10029211-3, 10029211-4) within the F-15E Ammunition Container, NSN 1005-01-298-2522, Part Number 100029110. The material change will involve replacing the existing A356.0 Aluminum Alloy conveyor guides with 32ea Grade 5 Titanium (Ti-6A1-4V) conveyor guides for each F-15E Ammunition Container. The development and testing process will include bond testing, creating drawings, and an Engineer Change Proposal (ECP), as well as container development and container validation. The planned service life of the F-15E is until FY 2041.
