About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation is conducting market research for the procurement of JTE Radar Transmitters, specifically Pulse Magnetron Transmitter radar components identified by part number A9070-060702 and National Stock Number 5840-01-656-4618. This combined Request for Information and Synopsis is designed to determine whether alternative sources capable of satisfying the agency's requirements exist and to identify whether commercial or nondevelopmental items are available that meet specifications. The government has determined that supplies are available from only a limited number of responsible sources, with justification based on incomplete or unavailable specifications and the uneconomical nature of reverse engineering or acquiring data rights from other vendors. All responsible sources are invited to submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations for consideration. Interested parties should direct inquiries to Michelle Mihu at michelle.mihu@us.af.mil, with the pre-solicitation notice posted on March 16, 2026, and formal responses due by April 1, 2025.
This procurement carries no small business set-aside designation, indicating that all qualified vendors may compete regardless of business size. The government is seeking nine units of the JTE Radar Transmitter with an estimated delivery schedule on or before October 14, 2027, providing a substantial lead time for manufacturing and logistics. While no incumbent contractor is identified in the available documentation, the Engineering Data List indicates that foreign disclosure restrictions apply, requiring Foreign Disclosure Office approval before release of technical data to foreign-owned, controlled, or influenced entities. The requirement falls under NAICS code 334511 (Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing) and PSC code 5840 (Radar Equipment, Except Airborne). No specific budget or award value is provided in the pre-solicitation notice, leaving pricing to be established through the competitive response process.
