Description

The Air Force Research Laboratory is seeking white papers for the development of disruptive, cutting-edge technologies that can fundamentally alter the strategic landscape of space operations. The focus is on creating transformative capabilities that span the cyber and electromagnetic spectrums, distributed architecture, and advanced human-machine teaming. The ultimate goal is to achieve true cognitive and cyber overmatch while ensuring the maturity of the proposed solutions for transitioning into government program offices or industry applications. Some key points to consider: • The proposed solutions must improve overall system resilience and optimize size, weight, and power constraints. • The solutions should enable entirely new operational concepts, rather than just incremental upgrades. • The Government anticipates awarding one or more awards, with a total of $25,000,000 in federal funding. • The period of performance for individual awards will not exceed 60 months. • The Government reserves the right to modify the award during performance to make within-scope changes.
