Space and Airborne Systems, Electronic Warfare Systems in Goleta, CA received a $92.4 million five-year order option contract for Performance Based Logistics support of the ALR-67(v)3 Radar Warning System used on the F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet aircraft. The AN/ALR-67(V)3 RWR provides visual and audio alerts to the aircrew upon detection of ground-based, ship-based, or airborne radar emitters, providing accurate identification, lethality, and azimuth displays that help pilots get a fast picture of the situation and react appropriately.
Work will be performed in Goleta, CA and is expected to be completed by June 2010. This contract was not competitively procured. The Naval Inventory Control Point issued the contract (N00383-99-D-020G).
UPDATE: In 2008, Raytheon and its US Navy partner won a Performance-Based Logistics (PBL) Award from the US Office of the Secretary of Defense.
