Design of an OD-19 to the URN-33 and adding back the antenna lanyard to the OE-4691 production.

The Department of Defense, through the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), intends to award a sole source contract to Thales USA, Inc. for the design and development of an integrated AN/URN-33 Printed Wiring Board (PWB) module. This contract will involve converting ship heading input from the USN proprietary OD-19 message format to the NMEA 0183 RS-422 format, as well as updating OE-4691 drawings to incorporate the antenna radome lanyard and supporting hardware from the OE-273 design. The goods and services are critical for enhancing navigation and guidance systems, with Thales USA, Inc. being the only source capable of fulfilling these requirements due to its unique expertise and proprietary knowledge.
