About the company

Undersea Sensor Systems Inc., operating its Ultra Sonobuoy Systems Division under the trade names Ultra Electronics and Flightline Systems, manufactures sonobuoy receivers, underwater acoustic sensing equipment, and related maritime defense electronics as a prime contractor to the U.S. Navy and Defense Logistics Agency. The company competes in full-and-open procurements with no SBA set-aside participation across its recent federal footprint.

Undersea Sensor Systems is a for-profit manufacturer of goods headquartered in Victor, New York, with a corporate structure that includes 18 named subsidiaries — among them Ultra Electronics Advanced Tactical Systems, Ultra Electronics TCS, Ultra Electronics Forensic Technology, Prologic Inc., and Ems Development Corporation — several of which are foreign-owned entities. The company operates as a parent entity and holds federal contract prime awards exclusively (100% of awards in the portfolio), with no subcontract role. Its capability portfolio centers on sonobuoy receivers (including the VIPR Sonobuoy Receiver family), SSQ-125 prototypes, Bioacoustic Analysis Buoys, and GPS-denied electronic systems supporting anti-submarine warfare and maritime surveillance platforms such as the P-8A Poseidon. Representative work includes a $3.46 million firm fixed-price delivery order from Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) for VIPR Sonobuoy Receiver procurement (awarded September 2022, completed August 2024); a $1.57 million cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order for Prototype VIPR Software Development in GPS Denied Environments (awarded November 2022, extended through September 2025); and a $1.49 million delivery order for the VIPR Sonobuoy Receiver (awarded February 2024, completion April 2025).

Customer concentration is heavily Navy-centric. The top five customers by potential value account for 80% of the combined potential value and include Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command (24 awards, $38.2 million combined potential value), Defense Logistics Agency Aviation (173 awards, $18.6 million), Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command (155 awards, $14.4 million), Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center (71 awards, $11.7 million), and Department of the Army Materiel Command Communications Electronics Command (5 awards, $9.5 million). The split between these two rankings signals a distinct award-structure difference: DLA Aviation dominates by sheer award count (173 purchase orders and small transactions) while NAVAIR concentrates the dollar value through larger delivery orders and system-development contracts.

Undersea Sensor Systems holds positions on five active IDV parents: Basic Ordering Agreement N0001919G0009 (7 task orders, $19.7 million combined potential value), Basic Ordering Agreement N0042114G0003 (8 task orders, $10.3 million), Indefinite Delivery Contract F3460193D1005 (18 task orders), Indefinite Delivery Contract F3460194D0449 (10 task orders), and Indefinite Delivery Contract N0038399D027G (7 task orders). A newly awarded single-award Basic Ordering Agreement from NAVAIR (awarded June 2025, ceiling $4 million, completion June 2030) provides a framework for continued undersea sensor systems procurement. The company's portfolio spans NAICS categories centered on Search, Detection, Navigation, Guidance, Aeronautical, and Nautical System and Instrument Manufacturing (154 awards), Other Aircraft Parts and Auxiliary Equipment Manufacturing (91 awards), and Electronic Component Manufacturing (52 awards); its PSC concentration runs heaviest to Underwater Sound Equipment (55 awards), Automatic Pilot Mechanisms and Airborne Gyro Components (79 awards), and Electrical and Electronic Properties Measuring and Testing Instruments (54 awards).

Activity has been sparse in recent years — one award each in 2025 and 2026 — representing a multi-year decline from the historical footprint. The company faces minimal recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months (one award with combined potential value of $39 thousand). Historically obligated dollars ($179.2 million) exceed combined potential value ($114.8 million), indicating a mature portfolio where many task orders and delivery orders have been fully performed against their ceiling values.
