Description

The U.S. Army is seeking a commercial vendor to provide a lightweight, autonomous (or optionally crewed) launcher system for a live‑fire demonstration at the Talisman Sabre 2027 exercise in Australia. The effort is structured as a two‑phase Other‑Transaction Agreement: Phase 1 consists of delivering a complete prototype, handling all logistics, safety, cybersecurity, and MOSA documentation, and optionally offering priced units, training, and logistics support. Phase 2 will mature the solution to production‑representative prototypes and deliver a full technical data package with extensive data‑rights. The solicitation requires a cash “performer investment” to supplement limited government funding, and the contractor must have a cleared facility capable of handling SECRET information.

Budget estimate

$5,000,000 – $15,000,000

No specific contract ceiling is disclosed. Based on similar OTA prototype demonstrations for emerging defense systems, Phase 1 (design, development, transport, testing, and limited option pricing) typically ranges from $5 million to $15 million, with Phase 2 maturation potentially adding several more millions. Therefore a realistic total award value is estimated between $5 M and $15 M.
