Offerors must submit firm fixed price proposals with supporting pricing data. The government anticipates awarding this contract on a sole-source basis to the incumbent supplier, Armtec Defense Technologies, under the authority of FAR 6.302-1 due to the specialized nature of the requirement.
The total estimated ceiling amount for this IDIQ contract is $49 million, with a minimum order quantity of 1,200 units and a maximum of 57,600 units over the three 1-year ordering periods from November 2024 through September 2027.

Description: RR-202/AL Chaff
NSN: 1370-01-699-5750 AQ
Part Number: 200326
This is a solicitation for a 3-year Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) for the RR-202/AL. The RR-202/AL is a chaff countermeasure that is comprised of an aluminum case, plastic end cap, internal plastic sabot with Kapton wrap and an aluminum chaff payload. It is expended by use of an impulse cartridge (BBU-35 series or CCU-145/A, or equivalent impulse cartridge) which pushed the sabot out of the case into the aircraft slipstream. Once in the slipstream, the sabot is opened by the airflow and released the chaff payload for aircraft self protection. Total estimated ceiling amount for this contract effort is estimated to be $49 M.
This is anticipated to be a sole source award to Armtec Defense Technologies under authority FAR 6.302-1 - 10 USC 3204(a)(1), Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. This is due to the requirement being a highly specialized supply/capability. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency.
