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 Reentry Vehicle and Wake Models

    SBC: Propulsion Science & Technology Inc            Topic: MDA10023

    Missile defense systems like AEGIS and THAAD depend upon having prior knowledge of the signature characteristics of the threat missile in order to perform the necessary system functions to defeat the threat. Thus, the role of signature simulation (both radar and optical) technology is critical for this purpose. This Phase II SBIR will develop a robust, user oriented modeling and simulation code ...

  2. Reentry Vehicle and Wake Analysis Tool

    SBC: GOHYPERSONIC INCORPORATED            Topic: MDA10023

    During hypersonic reentry, the flow around reentry vehicles is ionized resulting in electro-optical and infrared emissions, detectable radar cross-sections, and attenuation of signals transmitted through the plasma. Modeling these flows requires both expertise and substantial user time. The Phase II program will address these issues by developing the Reentry Vehicle and Wake Analysis Tool that wil ...

  3. Advanced Synergistic Structures for Interceptor Kill Vehicles

    SBC: SAN DIEGO COMPOSITES, INC.            Topic: MDA09004

    As part of the Ballistic Missile Defense Review (BMDR) policy, the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) has enacted a Phased Adaptive Approach (PAA) for BMD interceptors over the next 10 years. Phase 4 of the PAA will include the deployment in 2020 of a land based Aegis missile to provide early intercept capability. MDA has identified several technology needs for meeting the next generation requirements ...

  4. Multi-Spectral Countermeasure and Debris Identification and Mitigation Algorithm Suite

    SBC: EXOANALYTIC SOLUTIONS INC            Topic: MDA09028

    Objects tracked by optical sensors in ascent phase and midcourse are frequently obscured on the focal plane by closely spaced objects, countermeasures and debris (or clutter) that affect the performance of discrimination and tracking algorithms. Problems include missed detections, false alarms, corrupted signatures and masking of pixels that contain lethal objects. The objective of the proposed ...

  5. Development of a Terahertz Typing Toolkit for Interceptor Kill Assessment

    SBC: SPECTRAL SCIENCES INC            Topic: MDA09034

    A successful intercept of a missile by a kinetic energy kill vehicle initiates a complex sequence of events and associated observable signatures that occur over a very wide range of temporal, spatial, and spectral scales. The signatures contain important information on the lethality of the intercept and on the contents of the warhead (nuclear, biological, or chemical). The program objective is to ...

  6. Resource Optimization for Battle Management

    SBC: WARPIV TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: MDA09026

    Resource optimization strategies for engaging multi-stage, long-range missiles carrying multiple warheads during the ascent phase is an area of interest to MDA and the larger DoD community. The ability to rapidly predict the outcomes of extremely large numbers of decision permutations is crucial in allowing commanders make more efficient decisions in time-critical operational settings. Phase I ...

  7. Hypervelocity Intercept Modeling with First-Principle, Physics-Based Tools

    SBC: CORVID TECHNOLOGIES, LLC            Topic: MDA07019

    The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) has become more reliant on First Principles Model and Simulation to assess the effectiveness of the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS). This is due in part to the continued growth in cost and schedule for ground based testing program that have traditionally been used for such assessments. Results from the Phase I SBIR, MDA-073-019 SBIR, Hypervelocity Interce ...

  8. Ultrahigh Temperature Materials for Missile Defense Propulsion and Aerothermal Applications

    SBC: EXOTHERMICS, INC.            Topic: MDA09T002

    The notional performance parameters and kinematic requirements for the SM3 Blk IIB mission would benefit from the availability of advanced materials manufacturing methods that could enhance the technical properties and lower the cost of TDACS components. This Phase 2 STTR proposal addresses the requirement to significantly improve the affordability and performance of ultrahigh temperature capable ...

  9. Low-Cost Refractory Metal-Lined Graphite and Carbon/Carbon Components for Advanced SDACS and LDACS, Phase II

    SBC: ULTRAMET            Topic: MDA09003

    Rhenium hot gas path components are used extensively in the solid divert and attitude control system (SDACS) of the Standard Missile-3 (SM-3) Block 1A Aegis ballistic missile defense system, on which Ultramet is a key subcontractor. The mechanical, thermal, and chemical performance of rhenium is unmatched. However, a need exists to reduce the cost and weight of rhenium-based structures for advance ...

  10. Advanced Spectral Signature Models for Rocket Plumes

    SBC: SPECTRAL SCIENCES INC            Topic: MDA09032

    The design of space-based optical sensors for detection, identification, and tracking of threat missile launches relies heavily on plume signature simulation models. The development of very capable plume signature models traces back ~50 years. However, because of the complexity of the underlying physics and ever-increasing requirements for improved accuracy and speed, higher spatial resolution, a ...
