The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division, Lakehurst, intends to solicit on a sole-source basis to AirTec for the complete engineering and supporting data package that allows the installation of updated Sonobuoy storage racks on board fleet P-8A aircraft (P8ANAD-ACS-SBR-19032). This includes the physical validation of the Sonobuoy rack retrofit kit as installed, any necessary updates to the existing drawing package, models, and structural substantiation report, and development of a Technical Directive (TD) data package AirTec performed a Phase 1 Non-Recurring Engineering (NRE) effort in 2018 to strengthen the P-8A Sonobuoy Rack. The current effort is the additional NRE required so that the sonobuoy racks can be modified to meet the US Navy requirement. The effort can only be performed by AirTec as they performed the structured analysis for the rack and determined what is required to strengthen the sonobuoy rack. They have also designed the preliminary retrofit kits required. This effort is the testing and validation of the already designed retrofit kit.
