Integrated GOTS/NDI Systems and COTS Modular Enablers & Building Blocks
Solicitation # CHORUS26
The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) is conducting market research through solicitation CHORUS26 to identify domestic US-only vendors capable of providing radar electronic attack (EA) capabilities for Group 2-3 unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). The agency is exploring two primary pathways: integrated Government-Off-The-Shelf (GOTS) or Non-Developmental Item (NDI) systems that have been proven for military use, and Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) modular enablers such as RF System on Chip (RFSoC) technology, high-speed analog-to-digital converters, and edge compute chips. These technologies must operate across HF, VHF/UHF, L, S, C, and X bands while adhering to Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA) and OMS standards. The objective is to develop robust, lightweight solutions that meet strict size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C) constraints. Key technical interests include EA techniques such as barrage noise, coherent spoofing, and collaborative cognitive control for EA swarms. The program targets a three to four year development window, with physical prototyping and demonstrations expected in the second or third year. This is a Request for Information (RFI) for planning purposes and does not constitute a formal request for proposal or a commitment to award a contract. Participation is strictly limited to US-owned businesses that comply with ITAR and EAR regulations, and foreign nationals are prohibited from participating in any phase of the effort. Responses are due by November 6, 2026.
