Air Wilmington, Inc.

Air Wilmington, Inc., doing business as Modern Aviation, supplies aviation turbine fuel (JP-8/Jet Propulsion Fuel Type A) to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor exclusively under full-and-open competition, with no subcontractor engagement and no SBA set-aside certifications. The company is a for-profit corporation headquartered in Wilmington, North Carolina (1817 Aviation Drive, Wilmington, NC 28405), and operates under NAICS 324110 (Petroleum Refineries) and PSC 9130 (Liquid Propellants and Fuels, Petroleum Base).

Air Wilmington's federal portfolio is almost entirely concentrated on Defense Logistics Agency Energy fuel procurement—8,547 of 8,553 total awards fund DLA Energy programs, representing $117 million in combined potential value across the vendor's entire award history. The company delivers Jet Propulsion Fuel Type A to military aviation operations across nineteen geographic service locations spanning the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, and Southeast United States, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and portions of Canada, all sourced and distributed from its single Wilmington operational hub. The vendor's characteristic deal structure consists of thousands of small-value delivery orders (typically $1,000 to $25,000 per order) executed under standing indefinite delivery contracts, with individual orders completed on same-day or next-day delivery timelines. Representative work includes a $36,285 delivery order awarded May 25, 2026, a $26,616 order from May 20, 2026, and a $25,837 order from June 8, 2026, all for JP-8 fuel under fixed-price contracts with economic price adjustment provisions.

Air Wilmington holds a single-award indefinite delivery contract (SPE607-25-R-0201, ceiling $20.716 million through March 31, 2029) awarded by DLA Energy on October 1, 2025, which anchors its current federal posture. This successor contract replaced the predecessor vehicle (SPE60721D0084, which generated 4,437 task orders worth $21.6 million through March 2025). The company also maintains three other legacy IDCs with DLA Energy carrying combined task order counts of 3,055 across $25.6 million in potential value, demonstrating continuity in the regional fuel supply relationship. Activity has remained high and consistent—1,322 awards in 2024 and 815 year-to-date in 2026—indicating steady execution of rapid-turnaround fuel logistics for the Domestic Into-Plane 2.3 East region program. The vendor competes exclusively against other aviation fuel suppliers in full-and-open DLA Energy procurements and carries no visibility into other federal agencies, subcontract positions, or teaming arrangements. Air Wilmington operates as a pure single-customer vendor with 100 percent revenue concentration on DLA Energy aviation fuel delivery across the Eastern United States and Caribbean theater.
