Second Generation FLIR, Horizontal Technology Integration

The Second Generation Forward Looking Infrared, Horizontal Technology Integration (2GEN FLIR) program is a Category III Major Capability Acquisition within the Department of Defense. Operating under acquisition program number A29, this initiative represents a significant investment in advanced infrared technology integration across military platforms. The program appears to support multiple defense capabilities through various contract vehicles and delivery orders managed through Air Force components including the Space and Missile Systems Center and Air Force Sustainment Center.

The contract awards associated with this program range from $112,068 to $8.5 million, with performance periods typically spanning 1-4 years. Primary contractors include L3Harris Technologies Space And Airborne Systems Division, which provides BRU-57 bomb rack units and repairs under firm-fixed-price contracts, and ASRC Federal System Solutions LLC, which delivers mission assurance services, fault analysis, and program management under cost-plus-incentive arrangements. Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) frequently appears as a subcontractor on ASRC Federal's awards. The majority of funding flows through Department of Air Force components, particularly the Space and Missile Systems Center and Air Force Sustainment Center. Notable work locations include Calverton, Maryland. None of the reviewed contract awards utilized small business set-asides, despite ASRC Federal's status as an Alaskan Native Corporation-owned business.
