LW Man-Transp Radio DIR FND Sys

The Low-Altitude Manned-Transport Radio Direction Finding System (LW MAN-TRANSP RADIO DIR FND SYS) is a Department of Defense acquisition program focused on radio direction finding capabilities for low-altitude manned transport applications. The program operates under the DoD Acquisition Program Number GHR and appears to support electronic warfare and signals intelligence capabilities for naval aviation platforms. The precise scope and operational parameters of the program are not extensively detailed in the available data.

The primary contract activity under this program includes a firm fixed price definitive contract awarded by the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) to BAE Systems Aerospace Electronics in February 2003. This contract, valued at approximately $25.3 million in obligations, covered the delivery of electronics, countermeasures, counter-countermeasures equipment, and quick reaction capability systems. Work was performed at BAE's facility in Lansdale, Pennsylvania, with an initial period of performance from February 2003 through April 2004, though the ultimate completion date extended to March 2008. The contract was awarded without set-aside designation, suggesting full and open competition. NAVAIR appears to be the primary contracting authority for this program.
