Sunbelt proposes to expand the Small Business Manufacturer (SBM) base for Aircraft Launch & Recovery Equipment (ALRE) managed by the DLA, by becoming a qualified source for NSN 1720-01-116-8539, Parts Kit, Holdback, P/N 218334. Sunbelt has researched all 35 NSNs associated with this topic, and this NSN is similar to parts Sunbelt has manufacturing experience with. Sunbelt has built Holdback Adapters on the F-18 program for Boeing, and for earlier variants directly for the Navy, in addition to other ALRE equipment.
