• National Stock Number: 1560-01-HS1-3807
• Part Number: 27426/5790066-501
• Quantity: 10 Each (with an option for 4 Each)
• Intended Use: Replacement during routine maintenance of MH-60T aircraft due to failures, corrosion, or damage.

• Justification: The item is designated and manufactured by Helicomb International, Inc., the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). They own all rights to the technical data and specifications.
