PROCUREMENT DETAILS: The 115th Fighter Wing at Dane County Regional Airport -Truax Field, Madison, WI is conducting market research seeking capable sources for the procurement of BAK-14 High-speed Rollover (HSRO) Barrier Arm Assembly.

It allows the aircraft arresting cable to be lowered below the runway surface, making it ideal for joint-use airfields that accommodate both military and civilian aircraft. This acquisition is for the procurement of an improved HSRO BAK-14 system barrier arm to replace the legacy barrier arms, which are currently installed at Truax Field, Madison, WI 53704. These components are critical for ensuring the safety of flight operations for hook-equipped aircraft during emergency landings or aborted takeoffs.
