AI summary Beta
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA Aviation, Tinker AFB, Oklahoma) is asking Honeywell International for pricing and delivery on an F-100 engine exhaust nozzle control. The letter solicitation says the part is sole sourced to Honeywell, so this is not an open competition for a typical small business. The best estimated quantity is 88 each, to be delivered to the DLA depot at Tinker AFB by 28 June 2027.
