RFI: B-52H/B-1B ASQ-184 and AYQ-10 Fire Control Computers FA8539-1280-01-512-1505
Summary
AI-generated · Jan 24, 2026Sources sought for capability to supply two specialized flight avionics: the ASQ-184 defensive management system for the B-1B, which can automatically control jamming and dispense countermeasures such as chaff or flares, and the AYQ-10 ballistic computer used on the B-52. These systems are unique to their respective airframes and represent defense-critical avionics.
Associated identifiers for this effort include NSNs 1280-01-512-1505, 1280-01-619-1370, and 1280-01-514-5459 with corresponding part numbers 214A000-11, 214A000-15, and 240A950-3. This is an information-gathering (RFI) activity to gauge industry capability; no procurement or solicitation commitment is implied.
The Fire Control Computers are part of the ASQ-184 & AYQ-10 systems. These systems are unique applications to the B-1 and B-52, respectively. The ASQ-184 is a defensive management system that can automatically control jamming functions and the dispersion of chaff or flares from the expendable countermeasures system on the B-1. The AYQ-10 is a ballistics computer used in the B-52. The NSNs associated with this effort are: 1280-01-512-1505, 1280-01-619-1370 and 1280-01-514-5459 with associated part numbers of: 214A000-11, 214A000-15, 240A950-3 respectively.
