About this program
The SEAHAWK Carrier AntiSubmarine Warfare Helicopter (CV HELO SH-60F) is a Major Defense Acquisition Program focused on the procurement and sustainment of antisubmarine warfare helicopters for aircraft carrier operations. This program falls under the Major Capability Acquisition pathway and represents a significant naval aviation asset designed to enhance carrier-based antisubmarine warfare capabilities. The program manages various aspects of the helicopter platform, including its core systems, maintenance equipment, and testing infrastructure.
The contract awards associated with this program primarily focus on maintenance, repair, and logistics support components, with particular emphasis on specialized test equipment, hydraulic systems, and mission-specific modifications. Contract values range from approximately $17,000 to $32.7 million, with typical performance periods of 6-24 months. A significant portion of the work involves depot-level maintenance support equipment, including Airborne Low Frequency Sonar (ALFS) systems and Automated Radar Periscope Detection & Discrimination (ARPDD) testing equipment. The contracts are predominantly Firm Fixed Price arrangements issued as either Definitive Contracts or Delivery Orders, with minimal use of small business set-asides. The Naval Air Systems Command appears to be the primary contracting authority, with contracts typically structured without set-aside designations.
