Walk Behind Powered Aircraft Tug
Solicitation Notice: The United States Garrison, Fort Leavenworth Kansas, has a need to purchase an electrically powered walk behind aircraft tug. This procurement is for the acquisition of commercial items using simplified acquisition procedures in accordance with FAR Part 13. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) number is 336413 and the business size standard is 1250 Employees.
Salient Characteristics of Aircraft Tug:
-Electrically powered, walk behind configuration for precise movement of military fixed-wing aircraft into and out of hangar.
-35,000lb tow capacity.
-Must be able to cradle dual nose wheels, such as though on C-12 and C-26 aircraft, as well as single nose wheel configurations as found on the UC-35,C-21, et al.
-Utilize a "Lazy Susan" platform to place (cradle) the nose wheel on the tug unit, rather than the traditional tractor-and-tow-bar aircraft tug. This allows for precise maneuvering of aircraft, and greatly improved traction for the tug unit when operating on slick surfaces.
