Request for Information (RFI): Formal Learning and Abstractions for System Heterogeneity (FLASH)
Solicitation # DARPA-SN-27-17
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency Information Processing Techniques Office issued Request for Information DARPA-SN-27-17 to gather research on Formal Learning and Abstractions for System Heterogeneity (FLASH). The program aims to enhance the robustness of high-assurance cyber-physical engineering systems by combining generative-model-based agents with symbolic reasoning. This approach seeks to automate the synthesis of systems from formal specifications, creating semantically heterogeneous instances that maintain functional equivalence while diversifying failure modes and attack surfaces to better protect national security applications, such as autonomous tactical platforms and secure communication pipelines. This is a special notice and not a formal solicitation for proposals; therefore, no contract value or evaluation criteria are provided. Interested parties must submit their responses by November 30, 2026. Submissions can be made at any classification level, with unclassified responses sent to [email hidden] and controlled unclassified information submitted via DoD SAFE. Those intending to submit classified information must notify the agency by November 13, 2026, and utilize approved secure networks such as SAV, JWICS, or SIC. All proprietary and classified data must be marked according to specific Department of Defense and DARPA guidelines.

Cattle Run Proposers Day Announcement
Solicitation # DARPA-SN-27-03
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is hosting a Proposers Day for the Cattle Run program on November 10, 2026, in Arlington, Virginia. The program's primary objective is to enable cost-effective cislunar constellations by developing and demonstrating autonomous spacecraft that utilize solar sails or other renewable propulsion for long-duration maneuverability and station keeping. The project is structured in phases, beginning with the rapid development and launch of a demonstrator spacecraft below geosynchronous earth orbit to validate acceleration, vehicle control, and autonomous Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC), followed by the deployment of multiple spacecraft for cislunar operations. This event is a special notice and does not constitute a formal solicitation for proposals. Attendance is strictly limited to U.S. Citizens, who must submit a U.S. Citizenship Verification form during registration. Additionally, all attendees and potential proposers must meet CMMC Level 2 requirements, with verification performed via the Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS) using a CMMC Unique Identifier. The Proposers Day will be conducted at the Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) level and serves as a forum for program information, networking, and one-on-one sessions with the Program Manager, Mr. Steven Chambers. Registration deadlines are listed as November 4 and November 6, 2026.
