Bingo Fuel State Alert for F-5 Aircraft
Contract Opportunity Analysis
The Naval Air Systems Command, PMA-226 Adversary and Specialized Aircraft, is seeking market input for a Bingo Fuel State Alert system for F-5N and F-5F aircraft to let aircrew set custom total fuel level alerts. The work centers on a fuel alerting solution that can display 0 to 2,500 pounds in 100-pound increments, support easily adjustable thresholds, and be qualified for F-5E/F configurations, with commercial off-the-shelf solutions preferred to limit development. The capability is intended to improve safety beyond the current low-fuel warning, and the government anticipates a need for about fifteen units with non-recurring engineering completed within 18 months and airworthiness approval within four months. Responses should include a rough order of magnitude, a notional schedule, proposed solution details including any NRE, and company experience and size status. Capability statements are due by June 8, 2026 at 2:00 PM EDT.
