About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime has issued a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice for the acquisition of machine gun mounts for M134 Mini Guns used on Black Hawk Helicopters (UH-60). The contract was awarded to Dillon Aero on June 28, 2025, for a firm-fixed-price acquisition of 8 DGMT1001 Machine Gun Mounts with an option for an additional 8 units. The sole source justification is based on Dillon Aero being the original designer and manufacturer of the mount, having developed, tested, and obtained government authorization for the item at their own expense, with unique manufacturing capabilities that would require an estimated $500,000 in reverse engineering costs for any alternative source to replicate. Market research conducted in October 2024 through a Sources Sought Notice on SAM.gov yielded two responses but identified no viable alternative sources. The contract value is under $2 million and continues DLA's procurement relationship with Dillon Aero, which previously provided similar mounts under contracts in 2002 and 2019 under the same "Only One Responsible Source" provision.
