APG-79 RADAR Retrofit Phase VThe Naval Air Systems Command intends to award a sole-source modification to Delivery Order N00019-21-F-0804 under the Raytheon Corporate Basic Ordering Agreement to continue repairs and configuration upgrades of Weapons Replaceable Assemblies for the APG-79 radar system as part of Engineering Change Proposal 6279. This effort is limited to Raytheon due to its exclusive role as the original designer, developer, manufacturer, and depot maintainer of the APG-79 radar, with sole possession of the technical data and drawings necessary to perform the repairs prior to upgrades. The government has determined that no other source possesses the required expertise, technical knowledge, or access to proprietary information to carry out this work in a timely and cost-effective manner, justifying the use of 10 U.S.C. 2304(C)(1) and FAR 6.302-1 for sole-source procurement. No funds are available for response preparation, and submissions are strictly voluntary with no obligation on the government to award a contract. Responses are due by August 11, 2026, and all inquiries must be directed to John Ryan at the specified email; subcontracting opportunities should be pursued directly through Raytheon.

APG-79 RADAR Retrofit Phase VIThe Naval Air Systems Command at NAS Patuxent River, Maryland, plans to award a sole-source modification to Delivery Order N00019-21-F-0804 under Raytheon’s Corporate Basic Ordering Agreement to continue essential repair and configuration upgrade efforts for APG-79 radar Weapons Replaceable Assemblies. These repairs are necessary to address nonfunctioning units identified during baseline testing prior to the implementation of Engineering Change Proposal 6279, which requires units to be fully operational before upgrade. Raytheon is the exclusive designer, developer, manufacturer, and depot for the APG-79 radar system and holds all proprietary technical data and drawings needed to perform accurate repairs and upgrades, making it the only source capable of meeting the government’s requirements in a timely and cost-effective manner. The action is justified under 10 U.S.C. 2304(C)(1) and FAR 6.302-1 due to the unique and specialized nature of the equipment, where competition would result in unacceptable duplication of cost with no prospect of recovery. This notice is not a solicitation for competitive proposals; responses must be submitted by August 11, 2026, and all inquiries should be directed to Contract Specialist John Ryan. Subcontracting opportunities are to be pursued directly through Raytheon.

Airborne Radar supporting Multi-mission Maritime AircraftThe Naval Air Systems Command’s Program Executive Office for Assault, Maritime Patrol and Reconnaissance Aircraft is conducting market research to identify capable industry partners for the design, development, and manufacturing of the APY-10 Radar System for the P-8A Poseidon aircraft. Although Raytheon remains the original manufacturer, the government is exploring potential sources to support future production, with plans to award a contract in the fourth quarter of FY2027 and complete deliveries by FY2029, beginning with a base quantity of seven systems and options for up to twenty per year. Interested parties are invited to submit capability statements addressing technical and managerial readiness, including proposed approaches to development and delivery timelines, weight projections per assembly, past experience within the last five years, and current facilities and equipment. Responses must detail key personnel qualifications, industrial security practices for handling classified hardware and information, and compliance with all relevant regulations, including ITAR for foreign entities or partnerships. Submissions must be formatted as unclassified documents not exceeding 20 pages in 10-point Times New Roman with one-inch margins, delivered electronically in Microsoft Word or PDF by the deadline of July 28, 2026. Each response must include the company’s small or large business status, DUNS and CAGE codes, organizational profile, and contact information for a point of contact available to discuss the submission. The government explicitly states this is not a request for proposals, does not obligate award of a contract, and will not compensate respondents for their submissions. Responses must be clearly marked “For Official Use Only, Releasable to Government Agencies for Evaluation Purposes Only,” and classified material is strictly prohibited. All submissions will be safeguarded per FAR Part 15.207, but no feedback or responses to submissions are guaranteed. Only submissions received within the 15-day window and fully compliant with the specified requirements will be reviewed for future sourcing decisions.

ALR-67(V)3 Multi-Channel Analog-to-Digital (MCAD) Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC)The Naval Air Systems Command plans to award a sole-source cost plus fixed fee task order to Raytheon under the existing Corporate Basic Ordering Agreement N0001925G0009 to procure the ALR-67(V)3 Multi-Channel Analog-to-Digital Application Specific Integrated Circuit, a critical component for the F/A-18 and EA-18G radar systems. Raytheon is the sole designer, developer, manufacturer, and integrator of this ASIC, possessing exclusive technical data and intellectual property necessary to meet the government’s requirements, with no other supplier capable of fulfilling the technical specifications. The action is justified under Title 10 U.S.C. Section 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, as the government does not hold a complete F/A-18 drawing package with Government Purpose Rights, and no other source can provide the required capability. This is not a request for proposal and no competitive bidding will occur; all questions must be directed to the designated Contract Specialist, Laurelle Brown-Hill, and responses must be submitted by August 1, 2026. Subcontracting opportunities are to be pursued directly through Raytheon.

P-8A Follow-on Engineering Reach-backThe Naval Air Systems Command plans to award a sole-source contract to Boeing Company for Engineering Reach-back support related to the P-8A maritime patrol aircraft, with an award anticipated in the second quarter of fiscal year 2027 and a performance period of five years. This action is justified under 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1 because Boeing is the original equipment manufacturer and sole designer, developer, and integrator of the P-8A airframe and all associated avionics, communications, mission, and weapon systems, making it the only source with the necessary technical data, expertise, and access to proprietary information required to provide the support. Any attempt to open the requirement to competition would result in unacceptable delays to ongoing development and sustainment efforts critical to U.S. Navy and international user readiness. A sources sought notice issued on June 30, 2026, was evaluated through July 15, 2026, and no alternative capabilities were found to meet the requirement without significant risk or delay. This presolicitation notice, posted on July 16, 2026, with a response deadline of July 30, 2026, is not an invitation for competitive proposals. Interested parties seeking subcontracting opportunities must engage directly with Boeing through its official supplier portal.
