Request for Interested Manufacturers for C-130 Nose Radome NSN: 1560-01-417-5455LG

The Department of Defense, through the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation at Warner Robins, GA, is conducting market research to identify manufacturers capable of producing the C-130 Nose Radome, Part Number 3333921-1, NSN 1560-01-417-5455LG. The radome is a critical composite aero shell that requires specialized tooling for production, as it plays a vital role in the radar's transmission efficiency and is tailored to military specifications. Due to the unique nature of this component and the proprietary tooling owned by Lockheed Martin, the government intends to award a sole source contract to Lockheed Martin unless other capable vendors express their interest by October 15, 2025. Interested parties should contact Tammy Nottingham at tammy.nottingham@us.af.mil, along with other specified contacts, to discuss their capabilities.
