AI Contract Overview

The F-35 Joint Program Office intends to sole source a contract to Lockheed Martin Aeronautics for the integration of a Laboratory Intelligence Validated Emulator (LIVE) and an accredited Secret Training Network (STN) at the Australia, Canada, United Kingdom Reprogramming Laboratory in Eglin AFB, Florida. The LIVE system must deliver a full closed-loop threat simulation capable of realistically engaging a simulated F-35 to validate countermeasure effectiveness and ensure survivability, with real-time operator interaction, precise time synchronization with all lab test data, and the ability to evolve alongside future Block 4 air system capabilities. The contractor is responsible for procuring, delivering, and integrating all associated hardware, software, and network infrastructure required to support LIVE. Simultaneously, the STN will replace an outdated and unsupportable network with a fully managed, Secret-classified (REL US/AUS/CAN/UK) environment designed to enable the training of ACURL personnel in F-35 mission data file production and the development, testing, and evaluation of related tools and software. The STN requires updated hardware and software tools, along with a comprehensive 10-year sustainment package that includes dedicated spare parts, software licensing, a mid-life technical refresh, and continuous on-site technical support provided exclusively by personnel holding Secret and Special Access Requirement clearances. The solicitation, identified as N00019-25-RFPREQ-JSFCDS-0018, is being processed under FAR 6.103-1 as a sole source acquisition due to the unique and specialized nature of the requirements and the existing technological relationship with Lockheed Martin Aeronautics. Only offerors with an active Secret security clearance are eligible to respond, and all personnel involved in on-site support must hold the requisite clearances. The place of performance is established in Goulds, Florida, with the contracting office located in Patuxent River, Maryland. Although pricing, delivery schedules, and formal evaluation factors are not specified in this presolicitation notice, the requirement emphasizes end-to-end systems integration and long-term sustainment, with a strong focus on security, interoperability, and future readiness. Responses to this presolicitation are due by June 15, 2026, and the acquisition falls under the NAICS code 336411 for Aircraft Manufacturing. The Naval Air Systems Command is managing the procurement, with Jonathan Chen as Contract Specialist and Colin McCarthy as Contracting Officer handling point-of-contact

Full Description

The F-35 Joint Program Office (JPO) has a requirement to integrate a Laboratory Intelligence Validated Emulator (LIVE) and an accredited Secret Training Network (STN) into the Australia, Canada, United Kingdom Reprogramming Laboratory (ACURL) at Eglin AFB, FL. LIVE is required to provide a full closed loop threat system representation in ACURL that can realistically engage a simulated F-35 to validate countermeasure effectiveness and provide survivability assurance. The threat model must provide real-time operator interaction, be recorded and time synchronized to all other lab test data and be upgradeable to integrate with future air system capabilities being delivered by LM Aero under the Block 4 contract. The contractor shall be responsible for procuring, delivering, and integrating the necessary hardware, software, and network infrastructure that supports LIVE.  STN is required to replace an existing unsupportable network with a fully managed and accredited network at Secret classification (REL US/AUS/CAN/UK) for the training of ACURL personnel on the production of F-35 mission data files and the ability for development, test and evaluation of tools and software. The STN must provide updated hardware, software tools and a 10-year sustainment package including a dedicated spares package, software licenses, a mid-life technical refresh and on-site technical support by personnel cleared to Secret / Special Access Requirement.

FortiNet FortiGate Software License Renewals
Solicitation # N00019-26-RFPREQ-APM290-0806
The Naval Air Systems Command at Patuxent River, Maryland, requires renewal of Fortinet FortiGate software licenses to maintain critical communications security for the P-8A Poseidon aircraft. These renewals are essential to ensure ongoing support, updated threat protections, and operational integrity of existing firewall systems onboard the aircraft. Due to the proprietary nature of FortiGate technology—including the software, antivirus definitions, intrusion prevention files, and associated technical support—the U.S. Government lacks the necessary technical data package to replicate or independently support these systems. As a result, only Fortinet's authorized federal resellers are capable of providing the exact, mission-certified licenses and services required, making them the sole responsible sources under prevailing federal procurement authorities. This action is being conducted on a limited competition basis under 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, recognizing the exclusivity of authorized Fortinet resellers. While this announcement serves as a notice of intent rather than a formal solicitation, the Government will evaluate any responses received within 15 days of publication to determine if full and open competition is feasible. All submissions must reference the solicitation number N00019-26-RFPREQ-APM290-0806 and be emailed to Contract Specialist Frank Schibler by 4:00 PM Eastern Time on June 11, 2026. Responses may influence the Government’s decision to proceed with a non-competitive award, and no formal bidding process is currently planned unless information submitted demonstrates otherwise.
