The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. Physics Based Modeling of Supersonic Rain Erosion and Material Response of Missile Radomes

    SBC: MILSYS TECHNOLOGIES, LLC            Topic: MDA06T013

    The development of missile technology and systems will benefit greatly from a capability to simulate the dynamic particulate impact event(s) about the surface of the radome/shroud under aerodynamic flight conditions. An effort to develop a material response and erosion model for radomes/shrouds is proposed. The effort will identify gaps in the existing technology and database and will focus on t ...

  2. Low Cost, High Performance Inertial Rate Sensors- Airborne

    SBC: A-TECH CORPORATION            Topic: MDA04181

    ATA proposes development of an Advanced Rate Gyro (ARG) that blends two of ATA’s developmental designs to fulfill MDA’s airborne gyroscope requirements. Missile Defense Agency (MDA) requires such high performance gyros for Advanced Inertial Reference Units (aIRUs) for Airborne Laser DE systems and space-based surveillance and weapons systems. Current high performance gyros are marginal in mee ...

  3. Auto-Correcting Inertial Measurement Unit

    SBC: A-TECH CORPORATION            Topic: MDA04130

    Department of Defense space surveillance and weapons systems require highly accurate inertial knowledge in absolute location and orientation. Current technologies providing these functions are not integrated into a single, light-weight, low-cost, power-efficient, and drift-free instrument. Applied Technology Associates (ATA) proposes to further develop its innovative Auto-correcting Inertial Measu ...

  4. High Bandwidth Fast Steering Mirror

    SBC: A-TECH CORPORATION            Topic: MDA04109

    As the Airborne Laser (ABL) comes closer to directing a high energy laser (HEL) at a boosting missile target, it is essential that higher bandwidth fast steering mirrors (FSMs) need to be developed. These FSMs must be capable of controlling large 12-inch mirrors while handling the HEL power levels. Unfortunately, it is unlikely that a FSM mechanism (substrate and mounting structure) can be designe ...

  5. Advanced 10 Kelvin Cryogenic Cooling Component Technology

    SBC: International Mezzo Technologies, Inc.            Topic: MDA04077

    The goal of this project is to demonstrate a recuperator with extremely high effectiveness for use in a reverse turbo-Brayton (RTB) cryocooler. The recuperator will offer substantial system weight reduction, volume reduction, and performance increases for a cryocooler that can be used for Block 12 as well as any other space-based cryocooling needs. Advanced micro-manufacturing technology is need ...

  6. Micro-channel/Low Profile Heat Spreader

    SBC: Omega Piezo Technologies            Topic: MDA04139

    Thermal management is a limiting factor in a variety of areas in the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS). Proper thermal management of current Si and GaAs devices as well as wide band gap semiconductors is crucial for meeting survival and reliability requirements in advanced Radar, Communications, Electronic Warfare (jammers and electronic countermeasures), Space Electronics, and High temperat ...

  7. An Integrated High Altitude Plume/Hardbody Interaction Model

    SBC: MILSYS TECHNOLOGIES, LLC            Topic: MDA04148

    The modeling and simulation of the IR signatures and six degree-of-freedom trajectory dynamics of objects associated with theater and strategic ballistic missiles is an area of major concern for the development and testing of effective missile defense systems. Current state-of-the-art MDA models are highly capable and model a variety of complex effects including: IR radiation emitted from missile ...

  8. Object Recreation from Facet Representation to IGES and Primitive Representations

    SBC: STELLAR SCIENCE LTD. CO.            Topic: MDA05047

    Computer-aided design (CAD) modelers and signature simulation experts often must use multiple formats and types of geometric models representing the same object in order to support different applications. In the signature analysis domain, radar simulation generally requires faceted models, whereas accurate optical signature simulation requires smooth primitive-based models. Often the two models mu ...

  9. Solid-State Electrically Controllable Rocket Motors For Safe Attitude Control Systems

    SBC: Digital Solid State Propulsion, Inc            Topic: MDA05069

    The invention of Electrically Controlled Extinguishable Solid Propellants (ECESP) over the last five years opens the door for completely new ways of controlling solid rocket motors. When the propellant is fitted with electrodes and a current of the required voltage is applied, the propellant ignites and continues to burn until the voltage is removed. Throttle control and multiple restarts have b ...

  10. Plume Simulation Using Advanced Image Processing Techniques

    SBC: Propulsion Science & Technology Inc            Topic: MDA05044

    Missile exhaust plume radiant emission is a key observable for any missile defense system using optical sensors. Plume-to-hardbody handover and aimpoint selection algorithms are significantly influenced by the temporal and spatial variations of the highly visible exhaust plume signature. Current flowfield and signature tools cannot properly capture many signature trends observed by missile defens ...
