AN/AP-68V9 Radar DMSMS Study - Phase II ResolutionThe Department of Defense, through the F-16 System Program Office at Hill Air Force Base, is conducting market research via a sources sought synopsis to identify capable small business sources for Phase II of the AN/APG-68(V)9 Radar Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS) program. This phase focuses on resolving obsolescence issues identified in a prior study on critical Shop Replaceable Units (SRUs) within the radar's Modular Receiver/Exciter and Common Radar Processor assemblies. The objective is to replace obsolete components while maintaining form, fit, and function compatibility to ensure future manufacturability and reparability. The effort will proceed as a task order under an existing post-production sustainment contract with Northrop Grumman Corporation, the original equipment manufacturer holding proprietary technical data needed for this work. Interested vendors, particularly small businesses including 8(a), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, HUBZone, and Women-Owned categories, are invited to respond with their capability statements, experience with DMSMS efforts, understanding of related cybersecurity requirements, relationships with Northrop Grumman or Lockheed Martin, and potential teaming arrangements. Key requirements include project management, engineering redesign, prototype fabrication of two engineering development units for each of nine SRUs, and functional testing with qualification plans. Deliverables encompass prototype hardware retained at the contractor site, several engineered data documents, and a proposal to support the subsequent production phase. Responses are voluntary and intended solely for acquisition planning, with submissions due by the end of June 2026.
