This modernization initiative will replace the Global Positioning System Splitter Amplifier Unit (GPS SAU) for the B-52 while preserving all existing operational capabilities. The effort will address Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages issues, ensure continued production viability, and focus on long-term repairability. The program’s objective is to deliver a fully qualified GPS SAU prototype, validated design modifications, and a comprehensive Technical Data Package that enables future maintenance, sustainment, and integration activities.
Job Responsibility:
Design, engineer, prototype, test, and qualify a form/fit/function GPS SAU
Maintain form/fit/function equivalency
Support legacy interfaces
Meet all nuclear hardness requirements of the B-52H
Develop an F3 prototype
Substantiate all Class II changes
Deliver a complete Technical Data Package to support integration
Provide any required maintenance procedures and special tools necessary for troubleshooting and repairs
CDR-level redesign expected within 24 calendar months
Requirements:
Describe a general approach including phases to accomplish the objective
Describe assumptions
Provide a detailed approach to the objective (engineering approach)
