Budget estimate

$1,900,000 – $9,500,000

Based on the Best Estimated Quantities of 19 + 2(FA) units, the budget for this contract could be substantial. Considering the complexity and critical nature of the AN/ALQ-161 RF Switch, the production cost per unit may be high. Assuming an average cost of $100,000 to $500,000 per unit, the total budget for the contract could be in the range of $1.9 million to $9.5 million for 19 units, plus additional costs for the 2 First Article units. However, this is a rough estimate and the actual budget may vary depending on various factors such as production costs, labor costs, and profit margins.
