The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), Patuxent River, MD intends to modify an order under Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) N00019-16-G-0001 with The Boeing Company, for the procurement of 24 (twenty-four) additional AV6+ processor cards, P/N 79920335-019, to replace the legacy AV6 processor cards currently used in the F/A-18E/F Infrared Search and Track (IRST), Block I, Low Rate Initial Production systems. The Infrared Search and Track (IRST) system is installed on the F/A-18E/F. In order to improve the performance of the system, the IRST program will replace the legacy AV6 processor cards with AV6+ processor cards. The AV6+ processor cards are upgraded with additional memory chips and require particular software and coating requirements for integration into the IRST Block I system. Retrofitting Block I systems to the AV6+ configuration is critical to the success of system evaluation in 3QFY18 and Fleet Demonstration in 4QFY19.
