    This government file outlines various procurement and repair opportunities for aircraft components across B-1 Lancer, B-52H Bomber, and C-5 Galaxy fleets, as well as market research for C-130 components. Key opportunities include market research for hydraulic filters for the B-1 and miter gear bevels for the B-1. A significant portion of the document details the critical need for reverse engineering of multiple B-52H windshield components due to a severe lack of serviceable replacements, impacting aircraft operability. For the C-5 Galaxy, there are repair solicitations for Nose Landing Gear (NLG) Outer Cylinder and Piston Axle, and Main Landing Gear (MLG) Strut Piston and Outer Cylinder, all facing challenges in meeting repair targets due to extensive shop flow days and high condemn rates. Additionally, several new buy opportunities exist for C-5 components, including structural supports, various main landing gear doors, and aircraft floor sections. Market research is also being conducted for C-130 Remote Control Units and Light Source Control units. Interested vendors for most B-52 and market research items are directed to submit capability statements or white papers to a specific email, while C-5 opportunities require Source Approval Request (SAR) packages to a different email, with notifications of intent to submit SAR packages to be sent to a workflow email.
