AI Contract Overview

Show more

The G-IV aircraft at Armstrong Flight Research Center requires an upgrade to its inertial reference system, which currently operates on the unsupported Honeywell LASEREF II unit. The original equipment manufacturer no longer provides support for this system or any alternative iterations except the LASEREF IV, which is the only compatible replacement approved for the G-IV platform. The acquisition includes three LASEREF IV units, the necessary adapter kit to transition from the legacy system, and full installation services to be carried out by an approved avionics shop to ensure compliance and operational integrity. This procurement is forecasted under the NAICS code 334511 and is managed by NASA’s National Aeronautics and Space Administration through the Armstrong Flight Research Center located at Edwards AFB. The action is intended to restore and maintain critical navigation capabilities, as the existing system is no longer serviceable due to discontinued support from the OEM and third parties. Point of contact for inquiries is Franzeska H. Becker, with additional support available through the Small Business Specialist, Curtis M. Paul. The solicitation is posted as a forecast with a projected timeline beginning October 1, 2026.

The G-IV aircraft uses an Intertial Reference System from Honeywell called LASEREF II. This system is no longer supported by the OEM or any other vendors. The OEM can provide an adapter kit to upgrade from the LASEREF II to LASEREF IV. OEM has stated that no other iterations of the LASEREF are currently compatable with the G-IV aircraft. This acquisition is for the required units (3 in total), adapter kit, and the installation work to be performed by an approved avionics shop.
The G-IV aircraft at AFRC will require an upgrade to the Intertial Reference System. The current system is no longer supported by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) or any third party manufacturers.
