Del Mar Avionics, LLC

Del Mar Avionics, LLC, doing business as Del Mar Reynolds, manufactures and repairs precision load positioning systems and hydraulic test equipment for federal defense, aerospace, and space agencies, competing exclusively in full-and-open federal procurement as a prime contractor with no set-aside designations across its footprint. The Irvine, California-based for-profit limited liability company has been registered in SAM.gov since 2002 and operates as a manufacturer of goods with specialization in precision engineering and technical services for military and aerospace applications.

Del Mar Avionics' core capability centers on Hydra Set Precision Load Positioning Systems — specialized equipment used in critical defense platforms including the Trident II (D-5) Sea-Launched Ballistic Missile — with work spanning repair, overhaul, proof load servicing, calibration, and manufacturing. Representative recent prime awards include a $48,580 firm fixed-price purchase order from NASA's Shared Services Center (May 2026) for calibration and maintenance of a Model DHS-250R Hydra Set with proof-load testing at 200% load capacity and 10-point calibration; a $13,600 delivery order from the Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command (September 2025) for Hydra Set Precision Load Positioners with performance at John C. Stennis Space Center; and a $16,998.56 purchase order from Naval Strategic Systems Programs (May 2025) for repair of three Model B units supporting submarine-based strategic weapon systems. Del Mar Avionics also holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command (awarded September 2025, ceiling $94,800, completion September 2030) for Hydra Set equipment maintenance and calibration support, which has already generated one $13,600 delivery order.

Customer concentration is fragmented across defense and space agencies. The Department of the Air Force anchors 55% of recent awards by count (129 awards), but Navy customers — Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command, Naval Strategic Systems Programs, Navy Installations Command, and the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery — collectively dominate potential value at 40% of combined value. NASA's Shared Services Center ranks highest by potential value within the Navy cluster at $133 thousand across five awards. The vendor's top parent vehicles are GSA Federal Supply Schedules (V797P4066A with 34 task orders, $397 thousand combined potential value; V797P3618H with seven task orders; V797P3501J with six task orders) and two Air Force Indefinite Delivery Contracts (F4260090D0016 with 21 task orders; F4263095D0160 with 16 task orders).

Activity is episodic, with two awards in 2021, two in 2023, one in 2024, three in 2025, and one in 2026. The source data spans 326 prime awards since 1980 with combined potential value of $1.3 million, though obligated dollars total $21 million, indicating that invoiced revenue substantially exceeds listed ceiling values — a pattern consistent with long-term low-velocity contract positions. Only one award (combined potential value $14 thousand) reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, placing minimal near-term recompete exposure. Del Mar Avionics operates entirely as a prime contractor with no subcontract footprint in the source data.

The Hydra Set Presision Load Positioner provides a means for critical loads of up to 250 tons (227,000 kgs.)to be moved up or down with exacting precision - with excursions to within 0.001-inch (0.025mm).
