2ASOS L3 Harris Workbench

IAW RFO 5.101(c)(4): The 2nd Air Support Operations Squadron (2ASOS) at Ramstein Air Base requires L3Harris antenna repair and maintenance kits to perform routine maintenance on mission-critical radio systems (PRC-117G, PRC-160, PRC-163, and PRC-167). This procurement prevents degraded communications and supports the unit's adaptive mission requirements. The requirement consists of one complete system configuration, including the following equipment and components: Transit Case Upgrades: Enhanced durability/environmental protection kits for TACP communication cases. Leak Test Upgrades: Specialized tools to verify pressure seals and environmental integrity of radio housings. Assembly/Disassembly Bench: Dedicated workstation for the maintenance of L3Harris manpack and handheld radios. 117G Spares Kit: OEM maintenance components for AN/PRC-117G multiband manpack radios. 160 Spares Kit: OEM maintenance components for AN/PRC-160(V) wideband HF/VHF radios. 163 Spares Kit: OEM maintenance components for AN/PRC-163 multi-channel handheld radios. 167 Spares Kit: OEM maintenance components for AN/PRC-167 multi-channel manpack radios. Communication Hubs: Ruggedized data/power distribution hubs compatible with L3Harris protocols and power outputs. On-Site Installation & Configuration: Expert assembly, calibration, and integration of the test bench workstation. Level 3 Training: OEM-certified technical training required for operators to diagnose and perform complex repairs Technical & Qualification Requirements OEM Compatibility: Modern tactical radio systems rely on proprietary OEM architectures; authorized maintenance can only be executed using genuine L3Harris kits compatible with existing workbench infrastructure. Sustainment & Risk: Using non-OEM components risks voiding System Program Office (NSWC Crane) technical support, causing equipment failure, and disrupting established unit SOPs. OEM Installation & Training: Assembly, configuration, and Level 3 technician certification are proprietary and strictly provided by the OEM.
