About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command at Hill Air Force Base is conducting market research through a sources-sought synopsis to identify suppliers for egress components used in T-6A and T-38C military aircraft, with responses due by 3:00 PM on September 30, 2026. This is a research exercise only; no contract will be awarded from this synopsis. The Air Force seeks sources capable of engineering and manufacturing 23 specific impulse cartridges, initiators with time delays ranging from 0.17 to 1.30 seconds, and under-seat rocket motors (USRM), including products designated CCU-153 through CCU-157, CCU-172/A, CCU-185/A, and MK137/MK138 USRM variants for canopy jettison, ejection, and seat initiation functions. Respondents must demonstrate relevant experience within the past five years in engineering, manufacturing, inspection, and testing of comparable impulse cartridges and rocket motors. The NAICS code is 325920 (Explosives Manufacturing) with a 750-employee size standard; the PSC is 1377 (Cartridge and Propellant Actuated Devices and Components). The Air Force prioritizes small business concerns, including 8(a), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, HUBZone, and Women-Owned enterprises. Martin-Baker Aircraft Co LTD (United Kingdom, CAGE U1604) holds the capability and drawings for these items; potential offerors must independently obtain access to all necessary manufacturing data. Responses should include company profile details (employee count, office location, CAGE Code, DUNS Number, small business status) and anticipated teaming arrangements with clear prime and subcontractor roles. Contact Lauren Johnston at (801) 586-6015 or lauren.johnston.4@us.af.mil with questions. No reimbursement will be provided for response costs.
