Knight Aerospace Medical Systems LLC developed and manufactured a Aeromedical Bio-Containment Module (ABCM) for use on the C-17 and the C-130J aircraft. The Royal Canadian Air Force procured this item to transport and repatriate infectious disease patient

The Department of Defense is seeking the next generation of personnel transportations systems to maintain the cutting edge on the battlefield. An innovative personal air mobility system could fulfill a variety of military missions, including responsive mo

To support the development of future AF resilient spacecraft bus architectures for space mobility, GMTI and space domain awareness Opterus seeks to improve upon deployable and retractable rollable blanket solar array architectures by leveraging most recen

The Air Force and Prime contractors have, for several years, supported SI2’s platform agnostic Resistive Film product development for legacy and future bombers, fighters, and drones.  SI2 Technologies will continue our Resistive Film product development b

Atomic-6 is a United States-based advanced manufacturing firm specializing in environmentally friendly, next generation composite parts. Through a proprietary process, currently filed as a provisional patent, that includes both novel tooling design and a

Conventional “subtractive” machining is a huge industry with critical implications for USAF and DOD. The vast majority of safety-critical parts are manufactured using subtractive machining because it produces excellent dimensional tolerance and a high-qua

Materials for extreme environments (e.g., hypersonics, gas turbine hot sections, rockets, penetrators, nuclear) are generally difficult to process via laser-based additive manufacturing (AM) due to cracking induced under high thermal gradients, thus limit

Metal additive manufacturing can reduce cost and lead time for a variety of Air Force acquisition and sustainment needs. A key challenge facing this technology is the negative influence of rough surfaces generated by down-skin areas or support structures
