B-52 Solid-State Crystal Controlled Oscillator/Isolator Assembly
Solicitation # FA853926I-APQ166OSC
The Department of Defense, through the AFSC PZABA at Robins AFB, is conducting market research via Request for Information FA853926I-APQ166OSC to identify non-commercial sources capable of manufacturing a form, fit, and function replacement for the B-52 Radar Receiver Transmitter Oscillator/Isolator Assembly (NSN 5955-01-089-1801, P/N 164-029-0001). The primary objective is to mitigate supply chain risks and obsolescence bottlenecks associated with the original manufacturer, Norden Systems, and secondary source, Cobham, to ensure long-term sustainment of the B-52 fleet. This effort falls under NAICS code 334511 and is being evaluated to determine if future contracts can be awarded as total or partial Small Business Set-Asides. The required assembly must be a solid-state, voltage-controlled, crystal-stabilized high-frequency signal generator with a minimum frequency range of 8.66 GHz to 9.66 GHz, a tuning voltage of +5 VDC to +25 VDC, and a maximum weight of 1.3 lbs. Critical technical requirements include compliance with Norden specification 000-R-00031 for nuclear survivability and electromagnetic pulse hardness, as it is designated as a Nuclear Hardness Critical Item. Additionally, the unit must withstand 30 g crash safety shock, adhere to strict electrostatic discharge protection practices, and integrate with a UG-136/U flange. Potential sources must demonstrate the ability to handle classified material up to the Secret level and provide documentation of their capabilities, including socioeconomic status and counterfeit parts prevention compliance such as AS5553. Estimated requirements include an immediate need for 6 units, with a projected 10-year total demand of approximately 39.6 units.

B-52 Radar Pressurization Unit (RPU)
Solicitation # FA853926I-APQ166RPU
The Department of Defense, through the Common Avionics 407 SCMS/GULBA at Robins AFB, is conducting market research via a Request for Information to identify potential non-commercial sources for the repair and manufacture of the B-52 Radar Pressurized Unit (RPU), NSN 1280-00-898-3679, Part Number 101-352. The primary objective is to mitigate supply chain risks associated with a single source of supply and ensure long-term sustainment for the B-52 fleet. Because the government does not own the technical data package, interested sources must demonstrate the capability to reverse-engineer the unit or develop form-fit-function equivalents from physical samples and technical manuals. The effort is categorized under NAICS code 334511, and the government is evaluating whether a future contract can be awarded as a total or partial Small Business Set-Aside. Technical requirements for the RPU include meeting form, fit, and function standards referenced in T.O. 15A3-3-24-3, with a specific outlet air dew point of -20 degrees Fahrenheit. Qualified sources must be able to perform leak-rate testing under vacuum, vibration testing, and performance validation at a simulated altitude of 60,000 feet. The government estimates a 10-year demand of approximately 161.8 units, with an immediate need for 13 units. Prospective contractors must maintain facilities and personnel cleared for Secret classification and comply with stringent cybersecurity and supply chain standards, including DFARS 252.204-7012, NIST SP 800-171, and AS5553 for counterfeit parts prevention. Responses to this RFI are due by September 16, 2026.
