About this opportunity
Air Combat Command issued a notice of intent to sole source a B1-B Yaw Limiter (part number R1473M1, NSN 1680-01-267-2746) for Ellsworth Air Force Base, with a response deadline of September 9, 2026. Under FAR 12.102(a), only Alamo Aircraft, LTD is identified as the responsible source capable of meeting this requirement; Alamo Aircraft holds the sole approved safety-of-flight letter authorizing purchase of this component outside the standard supply system. The yaw limiter qualifies as flight-essential, and no alternative source can deliver within the required timeframe. Although this is not a competitive solicitation, vendors may submit capability statements to A1C Trent Waterman (trent.waterman@us.af.mil) for agency consideration. The Government retains sole discretion to award based on responses received or to proceed with the sole-source award.
