With aging aircraft hardware, new mission requirements, and a desire to keep weapon systems operational beyond original projections, the Government has an increasing desire to improve safety, reliability and maintainability while driving down the cost of ownership of aircraft systems and subsystems. The Government answers this requirement by funding improvement projects under the Component Improvement Program (CIP). Secondary Power Systems (SPS) is comprised of those parts which are used to start main engines with start carts, Auxiliary Power Units (APU), or Jet Fuel Starters (JFS) as well as those parts which are integral for continual aircraft power generation via Accessory Drive Gearboxes (ADG) or Aircraft Mounted Accessory Drive (AMAD) gearboxes and Power Take-Off (PTO) shafts. This performance work statement is specifically tailored for the KC-135 Hydraulic Starter Motor for which Eaton is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). The use of sound engineering is required to research and develop the necessary solution. The soliciation will posted under FA8212-20-R-0004.
