The Department of Air Force (DAF) generates hazardous waste from mission critical operations, including aircraft repair, emergency/fire training or response activities, and fuel storage. Historically, US hazardous waste management involves landfilling or

The proposed work will mature improvements to high-speed air breathing propulsion systems designed to improve performance and operability. This will be studied through a combination of experimental studies and a digital engineering-based design approach t

Spacecraft that will conduct sensitive or classified counterspace, Space Domain Awareness (SDA), and In-Space Servicing, Assembly and Manufacturing (ISAM) missions for both collaborative and non-collaborative scenarios must be able to complete a subset or

Founded in 2020, Boston Geospatial (BG) brings near real-time natural threat intelligence to operators and decision makers using its sensor agnostic radar processing platform. The Air Force Civil Engineering Center (AFCEC) and civil engineering squadrons

SI2 Technologies, Inc. (SI2) proposes to further develop and mature its Direct Write Resistive Film product to meet Air Force defined requirements. SI2’s Resistive Film product has the potential to benefit the AF through the availability of a cost effective, low scrap, accurate, and precise family of Resistive Film products.  Specifically, SI2’s proposed solution is to further develop the dig ...

SSCI proposes to leverage our extensive prior work to integrate and test Robust Encounter Avoidance and Conflict Resolution for Long Endurance Platforms (REACT-LE). The proposed system will provide a robust, low C-SWaP detect and avoid (DAA) solution for

Air Force Global Strike Command (AFGSC)/A3S has a national Defense-related mission need in the area Security Forces and intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) Weapons Convoy Security. Specifically, security and response forces tasked with ensuring the

The following Department of the Air Force (DAF) Direct to Phase II proposal, submitted by Pecos Wind Power under the Blue Sky category, introduces a novel, first-of-its-kind clean energy microgrid solution. The solution has three major specifications; it will be 1) a streamlined, plug-and-play microgrid for energy resiliency, 2) scalable and configurable to a wide variety of DAF applications, from ...

Soliyarn has invented a novel process for transforming off-the-shelf fabrics into metal-free conducting electrodes without changing the feel, weight, breathability, and pliability of the underlying fabric. This scientific breakthrough opens the door for a wide range of applications in the smart textiles industry. Our proposed Phase II R&D focuses on one such application that has been highlighted b ...

In this project, Akita will develop methods and materials to increase the size of dye-containing optical elements, specifically sol-gel glasses, to diameters of at least 3” and thicknesses of at least 1 cm.  This will involve modifications to both the mat
