REQUEST FOR INFORMATION: LOW-COST INTERCEPTORS

The United States Army is conducting market research to identify existing capability for low-cost interceptors to serve as supplementals to the Integrated Fires Air and Missile Defense mission. The interceptors should be capable of defeating Air Breathing Threats (ABT), Cruise Missiles, Close-Range Ballistic Missiles (CRBM), and Short-Range Ballistic Missiles (SRBM). The Government is interested in identifying existing capability for All-Up Rounds (AUR) as well as low-cost components, such as seekers, solid rocket motors, and fire control systems. The solutions should be mature enough to support capability demonstrations in 4QFY26. Some key points to consider: • The Government is seeking low-cost interceptors with a total cost of less than $1,000,000 at the prototype or production unit level. • The interceptors should be capable of integrating with the M903 launch station and the Integrated Battle Command System (IBCS). • The solutions should be at Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 6 or higher for AURs and TRL 4 or higher for components. • The Government is planning to host an Industry Day and prize competitions to evaluate the proposed solutions.
