FA8629-26-S-C001(Call-001)_Air Force - Small UAS & Asymmetric Capabilities - Commercial Solutions Opening

Solicitation # FA8629-26-S-C001(Call-001)

The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center is seeking innovative commercial or non-developmental small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS) platforms through the Asymmetric Warfare Commercial Solutions Opening, solicitation FA8629-26-S-C001. The primary objective is to identify mature platforms with a high level of technical readiness and flight heritage to support communications relay and data exfiltration missions. The government is specifically funding the integration of communications relay payloads and the engineering required for the systems to be launched or dropped from a SOCOM PEO-FW air vehicle, rather than funding clean-sheet research and development. The program is structured as a phased down-select process. Phase 1 requires the submission of a solution brief, formatted as a 10-page paper or 20-slide presentation, due by October 15, 2026. Subsequent phases include baseline performance validation in Phase 3 and prototype development and air-launch demonstrations in Phase 4. Successful completion of these phases may lead to a non-competitive Phase 5 for low-rate initial production and full-scale fielding, with a target average procurement unit cost of 250,000 dollars per baseline platform. Awards may be issued as fixed-price FAR-based contracts or Other Transactions pursuant to 10 U.S.C. Section 4022. The solicitation is open to both U.S. and international vendors, provided they can register in SAM.gov. While initial phases are unclassified, later stages will require Secret level facility and personnel clearances. Additionally, proposed systems must adhere to Modular Open Systems Approach principles and meet strict DoD cybersecurity evaluations to achieve an Authority to Operate on DoD networks.
