Power the space: high-voltage radiation hardened power switches for space power and propulsion
Solicitation # DAF26BX05-DV509
The U.S. Space Force is driving a fundamental shift in space operations from static, passive platforms to dynamic, maneuverable systems capable of operating in a contested environment, requiring a transformative upgrade in space power architectures. To enable this evolution, high-voltage power systems ranging from 200V to 800V are essential to support next-generation electric propulsion, space edge computing, and space-based solar power initiatives that aim to deliver energy to terrestrial sites under threat. These advancements demand compact, lightweight, and highly efficient power systems due to the strict size, weight, and power constraints imposed by launch costs, with rad-hard power switches serving as critical components that must reliably operate under extreme radiation conditions. Current silicon-based radiation-hardened switches are limited to a maximal voltage of 350V due to vulnerability to single event burnouts triggered by heavy-ion radiation, necessitating new device designs that reduce internal electric fields without significantly increasing on-resistance, as any substantial rise in resistance degrades efficiency and undermines mission performance. Innovations in high-voltage radiation-hardened power switch technology are therefore a national priority, with the goal of enabling continuous, autonomous space maneuvering and survivability under adversarial conditions. The solicitation seeks advanced semiconductor solutions that push beyond current derating limitations by integrating material or structural innovations capable of withstanding the intense electrical transients in space while maintaining low conduction losses. This effort aligns with broader strategic objectives to ensure resilient and responsive space capabilities through distributed, self-sustaining platforms powered by next-generation electronics. The initiative is structured as a small business set-aside under the SBIR/STTR program, targeting innovative U.S.-based entities with fewer than 500 employees to accelerate the development and demonstration of these mission-critical power components for future space systems.

Integrating Neural Architectures for Brain-Inspired AI with Low SWAP
Solicitation # DAF26BZ05-NV027
The U.S. Air Force, through the Department of Defense, is seeking innovative research to develop next-generation artificial intelligence systems that emulate the structural and functional complexity of the human neocortex by integrating diverse neural architectures such as convolutional networks, recurrent networks, transformers, spiking neural networks, and biologically-inspired models into a unified system. Current AI approaches, limited to single monolithic architectures, lack the efficiency, adaptability, and multi-modal processing power of biological brains. This solicitation aims to overcome these limitations by enabling seamless interconnection between heterogeneous neural modules, dynamic allocation of computational resources based on real-time task demands, and significant reductions in Size, Weight, and Power consumption compared to conventional AI systems. The research must be grounded in principles derived from the neocortex’s hierarchical organization and functional specialization to enhance cognitive capabilities, allowing AI to perform complex reasoning, perception, and decision-making across multiple data streams. Proposals are expected to deliver breakthroughs in both software and hardware design that improve information flow, system adaptability, and energy efficiency, targeting applications in robotics, healthcare, and autonomous systems. The initiative is part of a Small Business Innovation Research program with a Total Small Business Set-Aside, restricted to entities with fewer than 500 employees. The solicitation, designated DAF26BZ05-NV027, was posted on August 5, 2026, and responses are due by August 26, 2026. The work is intended to position the Air Force at the forefront of brain-inspired AI, enabling more resilient, efficient, and intelligent systems for mission-critical environments.

Dynamic Open Systems Enclave
Solicitation # DAF26BZ05-DV033
The U.S. Air Force is seeking a solution to address severe delays in modernizing legacy fighter jets, particularly the F-16, due to outdated, manual sensor-to-shooter workflows that are unable to keep pace with evolving threats. Current systems suffer from inefficient data links, poor edge computing, and an overload of battlefield information that degrades pilot situational awareness. To resolve this, the Department of the Air Force is soliciting a Dynamic Open Systems Enclave—an open-architecture hardware and software toolkit designed to rapidly insert next-generation sensors and processing capabilities into legacy platforms without violating airworthiness constraints. This enclave will enable real-time data fusion from national intelligence and battlefield sensors, delivering actionable information directly to the right platform at the right moment using resilient beyond line-of-sight communications, dramatically increasing operational effectiveness and return on investment. This solicitation, designated DAF26BZ05-DV033, is a total small business set-aside under the SBIR/STTR program, restricted exclusively to businesses with fewer than 500 employees. The opportunity was posted on August 5, 2026, with proposals due by August 26, 2026. The solution must operate in a secure, edge-computing environment compatible with existing F-16 systems while leveraging high-speed, survivable data links to bypass legacy bottlenecks. The goal is to transform how data flows on the battlefield—not by replacing aircraft, but by intelligently augmenting them with agile, modular capabilities that meet urgent FY26 modernization deadlines and ensure the United States maintains air superiority against near-peer adversaries.

Cost-Effective Composite Joints with Tailorable Performance and Geometry
Solicitation # DAF26BZ05-NV029
The U.S. Air Force is seeking innovative manufacturing approaches to overcome current limitations in composite pi-joint technology by developing scalable, cost-effective solutions that balance geometric flexibility with superior mechanical performance. Current options—back-to-back “L” joints and 3D woven pi-joints—are constrained by tradeoffs between design adaptability and structural integrity, with both suffering from high costs and limited scalability that hinder deployment on next-generation Autonomous Collaborative Platforms and advanced weapons systems. This effort aims to revolutionize composite joint fabrication by introducing novel carbon fiber architectures and streamlined processes capable of producing lightweight, durable, high-performance connections tailored to specific mission needs, enabling mass production of affordable, high-capability airframes that support tactical air dominance and long-range strike objectives. The project begins at TRL 2 with fundamental research into fiber configurations and manufacturing pathways, progressing to TRL 6 by Phase II through validated prototypes tested in operationally relevant conditions. Phase I focuses on benchmarking existing solutions, designing and fabricating initial pi-joint test articles with new fiber layouts, establishing a preliminary process flow for converting dry preforms into thermoplastic or thermoset composites, and delivering a technical feasibility report outlining geometries, materials, and projected costs. Phase II expands this work by refining fiber architectures to widen performance envelopes, scaling preform manufacturing with advanced resin impregnation, fabricating prototype joints for diverse operational scenarios including ACP airframes, and validating their mechanical performance through standardized testing. Deliverables include optimized prototypes, detailed tow path diagrams and material specifications, mechanical test data showing failure envelopes under varied loading, comprehensive manufacturing documentation, and cost models for both low-rate initial production and high-volume surge manufacturing. The initiative is structured as a Small Business Set-Aside under SBIR/STTR guidelines, targeting innovations that elevate the Air Force’s ability to produce advanced composite structures at scale while driving down costs and accelerating the fielding of technologically superior autonomous air systems.

Real Time Enhanced Fine Tracking in Directed Energy Applications
Solicitation # DAF26TZ05-NV005
The contract seeks the development of a real-time 3D imaging and tracking system to enhance fine tracking capabilities in directed energy applications, specifically addressing the limitations of traditional 2D imagery when detecting and tracking low-flying, non-cooperative targets such as drones against cluttered backgrounds. Current 2D tracking methods rely on correlation-based techniques that require accurate target templates and are vulnerable to occlusion, scintillation, and speckle noise, making them ineffective under atmospheric turbulence and varying lighting conditions. The solution leverages 3D coherent imaging using digital holography to generate complex-valued 2.5D images that capture both amplitude and phase information, providing accurate range data that is inherently robust to atmospheric disturbances. This enables superior pose estimation and aimpoint maintenance, which are critical for fine tracking loops requiring operation above 1 kHz with narrow fields of view. The system must integrate active coherent or partially coherent illumination to ensure performance in both day and night conditions while mitigating non-uniform illumination and speckle artifacts through advanced illumination designs. The effort is divided into two phases: Phase I focuses on system analysis, selection of a suitable 3D imaging modality, development of corresponding algorithms for image restoration and real-time tracking, and creation of a concept for integrated hardware with emphasis on computational latency and throughput to meet closed-loop requirements. Phase II transitions to the prototype implementation, integrating the algorithms onto high-speed processors and demonstrating the system in a controlled laboratory or outdoor environment with real-time closed-loop aimpoint correction. The project prioritizes computationally efficient processing pipelines that combine physics-based modeling with machine learning for anisoplanatic distortion correction and aims to deliver both software capable of extracting enhanced 3D target data and a functional hardware prototype that proves real-time operational viability. The effort is targeted toward small businesses under a total small business set-aside and requires full alignment with the demanding environmental and temporal constraints of directed energy weapon systems.
