The contractor shall provide engineering, acquisition, and sustainment services to develop, maintain, and sustain modern hardware+software solutions for USAF aircraft flight recorder download and data decompression / transcription.

All software and hardware interfaces developed must execute on modern computer hardware and operating systems (e.g., Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Microsoft Windows) and yield output file formats fully compatible with Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) data decompression and transcription software tools.
