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. Advanced High Performance, High Energy Density, Ionic Liquid Propellants for Insensitive Munition Compliant Exo-Atmospheric Interceptors

    SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC.            Topic: MDA18004

    Physical Sciences Inc. proposes to design, develop and demonstrate a novel insensitive munition compliant, high performance, green storable liquid propellant for advanced exo-atmospheric interceptors. This new propellant formulation can be treated as a monopropellant or as a bipropellant system with predicted specific impulse and density specific impulses exceeding AF-M315E, LMP-103S, and the dens ...

  2. Performance optimized hierarchical microstructure propellant for future small interceptor rocket motors

    SBC: HELICON CHEMICAL COMPANY LLC            Topic: MDA18004

    Future MDA interceptors require advanced propulsion capabilities, with higher performance in smaller, volume-constrained systems. Innovative propellant chemistry is needed to enable substantially greater performance in smaller packages. One factor limiting the maximum performance achievable in modern propellants is the slow ignition and combustion of the propellant’s metal fuel particles, typica ...

  3. Low SWaP nuclear magnetic resonance gyroscope

    SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC.            Topic: MDA18005

    Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI) in collaboration with the Northrop Grumman Corporation (NGC) proposes advancement of a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) gyroscope as an inertial sensor for missile and hypervelocity projectile applications.In the NMR gyroscope, the quantum mechanical angular momentum spin in the nuclei of a xenon gas forms the sensing mechanism.Since this atomic vapor has no moving par ...

  4. Lightweight Fiber Reinforced Aluminum Components for Missile Structures

    SBC: TOUCHSTONE RESEARCH LABORATORY, LTD.            Topic: MDA18006

    The Missile Defense Agency is searching for innovative technologies to implement in future interceptor missiles and kill vehicles that will produce weight savings within the systems. To answer this need, Touchstone Research Laboratory proposes to develop fiber reinforced aluminum (FRA) metal matrix composite components to replace those that were originally made from Ti-6-4. The FRA is able to reta ...

  9. Special Tooling and Processes for Repeatable Adhesive Application

    SBC: TRITON SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: MDA16014

    Threaded fastening systems in vibrating environments require a secondary locking feature, augmenting primary locking provided by an applied preload, to prevent vibration-induced loosening. The secondary locking feature can be mechanical, prevailing torque-type, or an adhesive. Self-locking nutplates and inserts are often more expensive than adhesives, require retorquing or on-torque adjustments, a ...

  10. Database and Numerical Procedures for Extending the Spectral Range of Plume Signature Codes

    SBC: SPECTRAL SCIENCES INC            Topic: MDA16004

    Over many data collection campaigns, a large number of propulsion related signature events have been observed across an extended range of the electromagnetic spectrum. The current suite of plume modeling tools contains the basic framework for flowfield and signature generation, but lacks the underlying physical mechanisms and supporting property databases to properly account for alternate waveband ...
