About this program
The Strategic Bomber Aircraft Airforce (B-1) is a Major Defense Acquisition Program (MDAP) operating under the Major Capability Acquisition pathway. The program encompasses the acquisition and maintenance of B-1 bomber aircraft systems and components. Based on the contract activity, it appears to focus heavily on sustainment and modernization of existing aircraft rather than new production, with particular emphasis on mechanical, hydraulic, and electronic systems maintenance and replacement.
The federal contract awards associated with this program primarily consist of delivery orders, definitive contracts, and purchase orders ranging from approximately $1,300 to $15.2 million in value, with typical contract durations of 6 months to 3 years. The majority of contracts are Firm Fixed Price, with occasional Cost Plus Fixed Fee and Time and Materials arrangements. Common acquisitions include hydraulic components, electronic systems, mechanical assemblies, and specialized maintenance services for the B-1 aircraft. Notable procurements include wing sweep gear subassemblies, hydraulic servo valves, circuit card assemblies, and various aircraft spares. While most contracts show no set-aside designation, there are occasional Total Small Business set-asides. The contracts appear to be primarily funded through various Air Force contracting offices, including multiple Air Force Materiel Command units. The contract data shows a consistent focus on maintaining and upgrading critical B-1 aircraft systems through both component procurement and repair/remanufacturing services.
