1. Background

 1.1.   NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) purchased from German Ministry of
        Defence (MoD), among other stuff, an EuroHawk (EH) Aircraft Engine (Model/Type
        AE3007H) with the intention to use it on the North Atlantic Treaty Organization
        (NATO) Alliance Ground Surveillance (AGS) Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). This
        engine has been identified as of direct use to NATO AGS UAV based on
        Model/type, Part Number (P/N) and Nato Stock Number (NSN) commonality.

 1.2.   The above engine has been purchased from the German MoD as spare engine for
        the EH aircraft in new/unused condition and within the original shipment packaging
        of the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). The engine received by the German
        MoD in Airworthiness (AW) condition for use on the EH UAV and since the receipt
        was stored for a long period (at least 6 years, in average) in controlled warehousing
        environment (e.g.: temperature, humidity, EMI/EMC protection, etc…) however,
        without any kind of inspection / test performed in the meanwhile.

 1.3.   Although this engine is identified being the same configuration (Model/type, P/N,
        MFC, NSN) of the NATO AGS UAV, it is operating under Computer Software
        control, which may has undergone updates/revisions. In addition, due to long
        storage time there is a possibility that the OEM has issued improvements, which
        have to be considered before releasing it to service for the NATO AGS UAV.

 1.4.   Therefore, the engine above has to run the process of recertification / Overhaul
        (O/H), by the System Design Responsible (SDR) or the OEM, in order to be declared
        serviceable and approved / released for use on NATO AGS UAV configuration.

2. Purpose

   2.1. This Statement of Work (SOW) provides for recertification / O/H requirements for
        the EH engine purchased by NSPA for use on NATO AGS UAV and the
        implementation of it, as required.

3. Scope

   3.1. This SOW applies to the EH engine identified as follows:Model/type AE3007H;
               P/N 23065502, MFC 63005;
               S/N CAE380066;
               NSN 2840-01-507-6569
