About this opportunity

The equipment supports calibration operations for H301-4 ECS Testers, SST units, and Voltage Detectors used in 35 Fighter Wing flying programs. It replaces obsolete RS925/RS925D units previously manufactured by ESI.

This notice is not a competitive request; submissions will be evaluated solely to determine whether competitive procedures are feasible for future acquisitions.

Questions must be submitted in writing by August 11, 2026, 12:00 Japan Time to Katie Kershaw (katie.kershaw@us.af.mil) or Michiko Yoshizawa (michiko.yoshizawa.jp@us.af.mil).
