BAE Systems Information And Electronic Systems Integration Inc.

BAE Systems Information And Electronic Systems Integration Inc. NSS Division, a subsidiary of Raytheon Technologies Corporation based in Fort Wayne, Indiana, manufactures and repairs military aviation radio systems, electronic components, and provides depot-level sustainment services to defense agencies as a prime contractor on full-and-open awards. The division competes exclusively in unrestricted procurement without set-asides, delivering concrete capabilities centered on advanced radar and communications equipment repair, radio system manufacturing and integration, circuit card assembly production, and technical engineering support for mission-critical military platforms.

Customer concentration is extreme and anchored by three programs. The Army Program Executive Office (PEO) Aviation dominates the portfolio with 33 awards carrying $1.64 billion combined potential value—nearly 77% of the division's total prime award dollars—driven by a single $965.9 million indefinite delivery contract through April 2034 for hardware procurement, repair services, engineering support, and software development for the AN/ARC-231/A Multi-Mode Aviation Radio Suite (MARS). The Army Communications Electronics Command holds 55 awards worth $306.4 million, anchored by a $64.8 million IDIQ through August 2028 for AN/ARC-231 systems, spare parts, and foreign military sales support. The Air Force Air Education and Training Command accounts for 63 awards valued at $100.8 million, primarily through two contracts: a $22.1 million IDIQ for ARC-234 radio upgrades and a $14.5 million IDIQ for ARC-234 repairs. Together, these three customers account for 87% of award count and 99% of potential value. The Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime (49 awards, $32.7 million) and Air Force Sustainment Center (7 awards, $28.6 million) provide smaller but recurring business in consumable components and B-2 strategic bomber electronics repair.

The division's vehicle footprint is dominated by task order activity against long-term indefinite delivery contracts. The largest by dollars is W56JSR19D0014 (41 task orders, $235.5 million potential value) with Army PEO Aviation for MARS hardware, repairs, and sustainment through October 2027. A newer single-award IDV, W56JSR24D0002 ($159.9 million, 15 task orders), covers RT-1987 receiver-transmitters and related MARS components through July 2028. Two Air Force Air Education and Training Command IDVs—FA830721D0001 for ARC-234 upgrades (25 task orders, $8.7 million) and FA830722D0001 for ARC-234 repairs (20 task orders, $2.5 million)—provide recurring sustainment and modernization work. A $64.8 million single-award vehicle with Army Communications Electronics Command (SPE7MX21D0069, not directly named in the vehicle listing but implied by delivery order numbering) supports foreign military sales cases for allied nations including Egypt, Croatia, Slovakia, Sweden, Korea, Germany, Australia, Netherlands, Morocco, Brazil, Jordan, Kuwait, and the United Kingdom. The division places task orders under these vehicles at an active rate—2024 saw 53 awards, 2025 saw 39—with recent activity showing sustained momentum across all three primary customers.

Recompete exposure is material: 29 awards (combined potential value $172.4 million) reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing both renewal risk and competitive opportunity for the division across its primary air force and army program footprints.

In its subcontractor role, the division delivers receiver-transmitter components and keep-alive battery assemblies to major primes including Lockheed Martin (Norway C-130 long-term sustainment), Northrop Grumman (B-2 sustaining engineering, Special Electronic Mission Aircraft contractor logistics support), General Atomics (Gray Eagle performance-based logistics, keep-alive battery assemblies), L3Harris (RC-135 sustainment, printed circuit assemblies), and Bell Textron (Future Vertical Lift FLRAA integration). Subcontract work represents 4% of recent award volume and supports electronic component integration and sustainment across rotary-wing, fixed-wing, and strategic platforms.

The division's capability portfolio is concrete: RT-1987 receiver-transmitter design and production for the MARS platform; AN/ARC-231/A Multi-Mode Aviation Radio Suite manufacturing, repair, and configuration management; Advanced Radar Capability-234 (ARC-234) system repair and upgrade (cryptographic modernization, radio checkout and installation, sustainment); depot-level repair of B-2 aircraft Low Noise Amplifier/Downconverter (LNAD) and Radio Frequency Switching Unit (RFSU) components; Joint Tactical Terminal Senior (JTT-SR) radio repair and technical support; circuit card assembly manufacturing and repair; cable and connector assembly procurement; battery storage component supply; and foreign military sales procurement and support for allied air forces. Representative prime contracts include the $24 million annual buy delivery order for 245 MARS RT-1987 radios (June 2024, Army PEO Aviation), a $46.3 million annual procurement of RT-1987 receiver-transmitters and control indicators (September 2025, Army PEO Aviation), a $42.2 million FMS delivery order for radio systems supporting Korea, Germany, Australia, Greece, Croatia, and Brazil (December 2024, Army CECOM), a $12.1 million FMS order for radio equipment supporting Egypt, Croatia, Slovakia, and Sweden (June 2025, Army CECOM), and a $5.62 million B-2 component repair delivery order (September 2024, Air Force Sustainment Center). Award pricing splits between firm fixed-price (majority of hardware procurements and repairs) and cost-plus-fixed-fee (engineering support, software development, sustainment contract management).

Corporate structure reflects membership in Raytheon Technologies' Information and Electronic Systems Integration division; the parent BAE Systems entity carries identical name and serves as the contracting vehicle for all referenced awards. The division's ownership is not disclosed as subject to SBA certifications—all recent awards indicate "no set-aside" designations, and the division competes in full-and-open procurements at scale and dollar magnitude that position it outside the small business and disadvantaged business eligibility frame.
