G-IV Inertial Reference System UpgradeThe G-IV aircraft at Armstrong Flight Research Center requires an upgrade to its inertial reference system, which currently operates on the unsupported Honeywell LASEREF II unit. The original equipment manufacturer no longer provides support for this system or any alternative iterations except the LASEREF IV, which is the only compatible replacement approved for the G-IV platform. The acquisition includes three LASEREF IV units, the necessary adapter kit to transition from the legacy system, and full installation services to be carried out by an approved avionics shop to ensure compliance and operational integrity. This procurement is forecasted under the NAICS code 334511 and is managed by NASA’s National Aeronautics and Space Administration through the Armstrong Flight Research Center located at Edwards AFB. The action is intended to restore and maintain critical navigation capabilities, as the existing system is no longer serviceable due to discontinued support from the OEM and third parties. Point of contact for inquiries is Franzeska H. Becker, with additional support available through the Small Business Specialist, Curtis M. Paul. The solicitation is posted as a forecast with a projected timeline beginning October 1, 2026.

Very Low-Cost Kinetic Defeat for C-sUASThe Department of the Air Force is soliciting innovative kinetic counter-unmanned aircraft system solutions under solicitation DAF26BX04-DP025, targeting rapid transition to the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center’s Energy Systems division and the Joint Interagency Task Force 401. The focus is on developing highly dispersible, survivable, and scalable interceptors capable of neutralizing Group 1-3 small unmanned aerial systems at a cost under six thousand dollars per engagement while maintaining an effective range of at least eight hundred meters. Systems must be designed for autonomous fire-and-forget operation with no post-launch user input required, and must function reliably in contested, GPS-denied environments. The capability to conduct simultaneous multiple engagements is essential, and integration into existing C-sUAS command and control architectures—including platforms like Medusa—is strongly encouraged. Financial sustainability is a primary driver, aiming to replace expensive interceptors with affordable alternatives to counter mass and swarm tactics effectively. Performance is expected to align with low-collateral operational needs though not mandated, and all proposed solutions must originate from small businesses with fewer than five hundred employees under a total small business set-aside. Proposals are due by July 22, 2026, with a submission window opening on July 1, 2026.

Large Étendue, High Spectral Resolution Asymmetric Spatial Heterodyne Interferometer for Quantum and Dual-Use Remote Sensing ApplicationsThere is an urgent need for a new type of spectrometer that overcomes the fundamental tradeoff between optical throughput and spectral resolution in quantum communication and remote sensing applications. Current instruments like grating spectrometers and Fabry-Perot etalons cannot simultaneously achieve the large étendue required to collect faint single photons from wide fields of view and the high spectral resolution needed to filter out solar noise or resolve sub-picometer Doppler shifts in atmospheric and oceanic signals. The proposed solution is a fieldable Asymmetric Spatial Heterodyne (ASH) interferometer, a static, no-moving-parts design that leverages interferometric principles to deliver both high étendue and resolving power greater than 10^5. The instrument must operate at key wavelengths such as 486 nm, 780 nm, or 1550 nm and meet a minimum étendue of 0.1 cm² sr, enabling deployment in satellite-based quantum key distribution, ground station receivers, and airborne or spaceborne quantum-enhanced LiDAR and sensing platforms. The design must be robust enough for harsh environments, scalable, and manufacturable beyond prototyping, with a clear engineering tradeoff analysis between size, throughput, and resolution. This effort is part of a Small Business Innovation Research set-aside solicitation from the Department of Defense, open exclusively to small businesses with fewer than 500 employees, with proposals due by July 22, 2026.

Advanced Stand-Off Detection of Concealed Materials (ASDCM)USSOCOM is seeking innovative, field-deployable sensor technologies capable of passively detecting, discriminating, and triangulating hidden dangerous materials—such as explosives, advanced weapons, radiological substances, and biological hazards—without physical contact, active emissions, or sampling. The system must operate in a low-probability-of-interception and low-probability-of-detection mode, functioning reliably in GPS-denied, low-light, high-interference, and austere environments across diverse mission types including maritime boardings, over-the-beach reconnaissance, route clearance, counter-air protection, and expeditionary medical diagnostics. Emphasis is placed on non-traditional methodologies that identify threats by their intrinsic material composition rather than emitted signatures, exploring novel approaches such as material resonance or atomic signature recognition to penetrate shielding and barriers. The solution must be miniaturized for use on man-portable or unmanned platforms and engineered for rugged tactical and maritime deployment with built-in support for multi-sensor cueing and triangulation. Proposed concepts must demonstrate technical feasibility through a clear research path toward system miniaturization, environmental ruggedization, and seamless integration into existing SOF operational workflows. The technology must exceed conventional radiation or vapor detection systems and provide real-time threat awareness without compromising stealth or operational security. All proposals are expected to align with the SBA’s Small Business Set-Aside requirements, targeting entities with fewer than 500 employees, and must be submitted before the deadline of July 22, 2026. The initiative encourages inventive sensor modalities that transform how special operations forces identify concealed threats in complex, denied environments, ultimately enhancing force protection and mission success across unconventional and high-risk scenarios.
