Overview

Luke Air Force Base is home to the 56th Fighter Wing, the Air Force's largest fighter wing and a cornerstone of Air Education and Training Command (AETC). Located northwest of Phoenix in Glendale, Arizona, Luke is the premier training installation for F-35A Lightning II and F-16 Fighting Falcon pilots and maintainers, graduating combat-ready aircrew for the Air Force and allied partner nations. The base sustains an intensive flying-training tempo supported by squadron operations, maintenance complexes, simulator buildings, classrooms and a large base community.

That mission depends on dependable, secure IT. Pilot training increasingly runs on networked simulators, high-fidelity courseware, and data systems that must move large files reliably between operations, maintenance and academic facilities. Squadron operations centers, aircraft maintenance units and mission-support groups all rely on resilient campus networking, modern server and storage platforms, and pervasive secure Wi-Fi across a sprawling desert installation.

For procurement teams at Luke, the challenge is acquiring TAA-compliant, standards-based hardware quickly and through the right contract vehicles, while meeting DoD security and supply-chain requirements. Uniqcli focuses on exactly that intersection: matching HPE, Aruba and Juniper technology to the wing's training and support mission, and delivering it compliantly on schedule.

IT & infrastructure priorities

Simulator & training network modernization

Low-latency, high-bandwidth switching and structured cabling to connect F-35 and F-16 simulators, courseware servers and academic classrooms supporting AETC's high-volume pilot-production mission.

Secure campus networking & Wi-Fi

Aruba and Juniper switching, wireless and access control to deliver consistent, policy-driven connectivity across operations, maintenance and support facilities base-wide.

Data center & edge compute refresh

HPE ProLiant servers and Alletra storage to consolidate aging infrastructure, host training and mission-support applications, and push compute to the flight line and squadron edge.

Zero Trust & supply-chain assurance

Identity-driven segmentation, role-based access and TAA-compliant sourcing aligned with DoD Zero Trust and cybersecurity supply-chain risk management requirements.

Storage, backup & data protection

Resilient storage and backup for training records, maintenance data and operational systems, with fast recovery to keep the flying schedule uninterrupted.
