Description

ITL Solutions is proposing through this effort to research and develop a Source Approval Request Package to become a manufacturing source for the Parallel Pendant (NSN 1710-01-497-6646).  The ALRE (Aircraft Launch and Recovery Equipment) Parallel Pendant is a small part of the barricade system for emergency recovery of US Navy carrier based aircraft.  During normal operations, there are four or three, class dependent, wire cross deck pendants for normal aircraft arrestment.  If an emergency occurs with an in-flight aircraft and the ALRE barricade is rigged with the single use Parallel Pendant to recover the distressed aircraft, then the Parallel Pendant is discarded after use.  For this reason, a regular manufacturing source is needed.  The ITL Team will research the requirements and develop a Source Approval Request (SAR) Package to become an approved manufacturing source for the Parallel Pendant utilizing our over 170 years of experience with rope assembly manufacturing.
