The trend over the last several years is fewer businesses supplying manufactured products. Thus, by supply and demand, the cost of military hardware has increased with less competition. Furthermore, amortized cost of the qualifying a new product becomes cost prohibited resulting in non-competitive bids compared to historical averages. DLAs Replenishment Parts Purchase or Borrow program supports re ...

A technical approach is proposed to survey the industry for state of the art capabilities in terms of the SOCOM mission requirements described in the solicitation for the Group 2 Tactical ISR UAS. The results of the survey will select a configuration of potential candidate UAS that would meet the threshold and ultimately objective goals stated.

VAWD has extensive experience developing technologies and products for Sense Through The Wall (STTW) and RF Penetration through materials. Based on our experience we believe that the RF spectrum is a natural fit to solve this problem. Therefore we have constrained our trade space for an optimized microwave technology solution.VAWD proposes techniques that will use Multi-Frequency discrimination in ...

Response Technologies will attempt to qualify to MIL-DTL-27422Fs phase I performance testing criteria for thefuel cell test cubes[Class BSemi rigid or self-supporting fuel construction, Type ISelf-sealing, and Protection Level CFull self-sealing against 50 caliber and partial self-sealing against 14.5 mm] .Response Technologiesuses an additive manufacturing process that initially creates a textile ...

Military divers are experiencing negative medical side effects from inhalation of cold air or mixed gas (HeO2) while diving with a closed-circuit breathing apparatus.Therefore, SOCOM is looking for an innovative device that will reheat a divers inspired breathing gas to prevent a diver from experiencing hypothermia.Paragon will apply relevant experience in the design and manufacturing of active an ...

Seam failures of flexible inflatable hulls is the primary reason for failures of military RHIBS and CRCs.These failures are a result of the current manufacturing methods being used, and which have been in place for over fifty years.Whats more, the manufacturing methods and fragmented supply chain of these hulls result in very long and unreliable lead times.These shortcomings impact the survivabili ...

Transparent armor is very important to the survivability and situational awareness for the crews of modern land, marine or aviation vehicles. Additionally to the common armor requirements (low areal density and high ballistic performance) transparent armor should provide high infrared and visual transmittance. Ceramic ballistic windows meet these requirements, but they often suffer from unaffordab ...

Paragon Space Development Corporation will provide SOCOM with a low-cost, conformal, closed-loop cooling system that is highly resistant to damage and provides superior cooling performance to existing raw water cooling alternatives. This proposed innovation is simple to manufacture, retrofit, and in its final form, is anticipated to entail little to no mass increase over the current system. The c ...
