About this program
The AIM-9 Sidewinder Missile program represents a major Department of Defense acquisition effort focused on air-to-air missile systems. Based on the contract history spanning from 1984 to 2011, this program encompasses the procurement, development, and support of the AIM-9 Sidewinder, which has been a cornerstone of U.S. air combat capability. The program's scope includes various aspects of missile system delivery and support, with significant investment in both production and sustainment activities.
The contract awards associated with this program range from relatively modest modifications of $37,000 to major procurement actions exceeding $28 million, with the largest single award being $28,892,322 to Marvin Engineering in 2000 for missile launchers. The majority of contracts were structured as either Definitive Contracts or Delivery Orders, with a strong preference for Firm Fixed Price arrangements, though some contracts utilized Other pricing types and Cost Plus Fixed Fee structures. Notably, none of the contracts utilized set-aside provisions. The Department of the Navy (indicated by "N00019" contract prefixes) and Air Force were the primary contracting authorities. Marvin Engineering in Inglewood, California, appears as a significant contractor in the available data, particularly for launcher-related components. The contract periods typically ranged from several months to multiple years, with the most recent significant activity documented being the 2000-2011 launcher procurement effort.
