Closing soonLow-Cost Multi-Function Ku-Band RF System for Prompt Strike Weapons
Description: The Department of the Air Force SBIR Direct to Phase II topic seeks a low-cost, scalable Ku-band multi-function RF seeker/system for Prompt Strike Weapons, supporting radar, passive direction-finding, and line-of-sight datalink modes. It emphasizes high-volume manufacturability and a design that fits a 6-inch interior-diameter cylinder, with named transition targets including AFLCMC/EB and other Department of Defense users. This is a DoD SBIR BAA research solicitation rather than a grant program; it was pre-released on September 2, 2026, opens on September 23, 2026, and proposals are due October 21, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. ET.
