CAPACITY ON A UHF-CAPABLE ON-ORBIT MEO SATELLITE

Solicitation # RFI-RJZX-2026-RAPID

The United States Space Force, through the Air Force Research Laboratory, is seeking information via RFI-RJZX-2026-RAPID to obtain bandwidth from a commercially owned and operated UHF-capable on-orbit Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellite. This experimental campaign aims to characterize spectrum and waveform operations, demonstrate interoperability with the existing GEO constellation, and establish a pathway to augment or replace GEO UHF systems with MEO capabilities. The government requires a space transport service agnostic of specific waveforms, including a vendor ground system for uplink and downlink exchange, with contractual access to the MEO space node for at least 36 months. Technical specifications require operation within the 244-380 MHz band, specifically 20 MHz of contiguous bandwidth for uplink (300-320 MHz) and downlink (360-380 MHz), with ground-measured power not exceeding -138 dBW/k. This RFI is issued solely for market research and planning purposes and does not constitute a formal solicitation or a promise of a future contract. Respondents must be US-based prime contractors, though foreign firms may participate as subcontractors. Submissions must be entirely unclassified and demonstrate compliance with NIST SP 800-171 Rev 2, NDAA supply chain requirements, and DFARS cybersecurity standards. Interested parties must provide a milestone schedule of service availability, a pricing structure, and a cost estimate. Responses are limited to 15 pages in 12-point Times New Roman font and must be submitted via DoD Safe by August 10, 2026.

STAR-FISH CALL 017 - Secure By Design

Solicitation # FA945326XA001

The Air Force Research Laboratory, Space Vehicles Directorate, is soliciting white papers under CALL 017 of the Space Technology Advanced Research - Fast-tracking Innovative Software and Hardware (STAR-FISH) program. This effort, titled Secure by Design Space Vehicle (SDSV), aims to mitigate cyber threats to critical national space missions, including SATCOM, ISR, PNT, and Missile Warning/Tracking. The objective is to research, design, and demonstrate a cyber-hardened space vehicle system that reduces attack surfaces and implements resiliency mechanisms for self-protection and rapid recovery. The scope of work includes the construction of a space vehicle flat-sat and cyber range, the integration of Cyber-Hardened Satellite Software (CHSS), and a progression from ground-based experimentation to a live on-orbit demonstration. This is a two-step procurement process starting with the submission of unclassified white papers and rough order of magnitude cost estimates, due by 1600 MST on November 13, 2026, via DoD Safe. Selected offerors will then be invited to submit full proposals. The government anticipates awarding multiple Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) contracts with a total estimated value of 14 million dollars, distributed across fiscal years 2027 through 2030. The period of performance extends from October 12, 2026, to October 11, 2031. Evaluation will be conducted through a peer or scientific review process using a weight of scientific evidence approach, prioritizing technical merit and relevance to DOD missions over cost realism. Offerors must be US citizens, maintain valid SAM registration, and provide a detailed Organizational Conflict of Interest analysis. Security requirements range from CUI to Secret, and any deliverable items with a unit acquisition cost of 5,000 dollars or more will require unique item identification.
