    The DD FORM 1423-1, a Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL), outlines the requirements for contractors to submit a Counterfeit Prevention Plan (CPP) for electronic components related to the "Poland" system. The document details administrative information, submission procedures, and pricing guidance. Contractors must submit the CPP within 30 calendar days of contract award via email, with any necessary remediation to be addressed within specific timeframes. The CPP submission requires a Letter of Transmittal. Distribution of the plan is restricted to the Department of Defense and U.S. DoD contractors due to critical technology, and it must include export control warnings in accordance with relevant U.S. codes. The form also defines various price groups for data items, clarifying how costs associated with data production and delivery should be estimated and charged, with Group IV items typically at no cost.
    This Engineering Data List (EDL) provides a comprehensive inventory of engineering drawings and accompanying documents for the F-16's "ELECTRONIC COMPONEN" end item, manufactured by Lockheed Martin Corporation (CAGE: 81755). The list, revised on July 31, 2025, details various components, assemblies, test procedures, manufacturing processes, and material specifications. Key entries include unit assemblies (e.g., Advanced Missile Remote Interface), circuit card assemblies (CCAs), schematic diagrams, and acceptance/burn-in test procedures. It also outlines specifications for finishes, adhesives, coatings, welding, electrical bonding, and environmental protection (e.g., ESD damage prevention). The EDL specifies the furnishing method for each document, indicating whether it's classified, supplied with solicitation, or requires acquisition by the contractor, providing a critical reference for procurement, manufacturing, and maintenance activities related to this F-16 electronic component.
    This document outlines engineering data requirements for manufacturing the UNIT ASSY-ADVANCED MISSILE REMOTE INTERFACE, SMS F-16, with part number 16E10150-801 and national stock number 5998-01-322-7746WF. Key instructions include using specific military specifications/standards, prohibiting unauthorized deviations from control drawings, and applying Unique Identification (UID) per MIL-STD-130. The document emphasizes the continued use of leaded solder in electronic military products due to reliability concerns with lead-free alternatives, requiring certification if no lead-free components are used. A significant portion of the document details requirements for a Counterfeit Prevention Plan (CPP), mandating policies and procedures to avoid, detect, mitigate, and dispose of counterfeit electronic parts. The CPP must address applicability, definitions, procurement policies (prioritizing original manufacturers), risk assessment, detection/avoidance responsibilities, testing/verification, configuration identification/traceability, counterfeit notification/reporting, and mandatory training for personnel. The point of contact for these matters is the Engineering Support Activity (ESA).
