Purpose
SOFWERX, in collaboration with USSOCOM SOF Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics (AT&L) Program Executive Office Tactical Information Systems (PEO-TIS), will host an Assessment Event (AE) to evaluate the technical merit of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) with channelized wings in concert with a Hybrid Electric powerplant, in combination with Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) runway independence.
Background
PEO-TIS is seeking information on a specific technology area to gain knowledge of, explore, and identify available capabilities for potential inclusion in the Channelized Wing Hybrid Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (CHEVTOL) AE. Technology desired by USSOCOM is intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition, and reconnaissance (ISTAR) UAS with a channel wing concept vehicle having a Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of 7 or above and UAS must have hybrid electric powerplants in combination with VTOL capabilities to be considered.
Objective
This assessment solicits white papers to describe the current capabilities of ISTAR CHEVTOL UAS and submissions will be reviewed by USSOCOM stakeholders and Subject Matter Expert-s (SME-s) to identify solutions for future participation in the CHEVTOL UAS AE.
Why You Should Participate
USSOCOM seeks to enter into non-FAR or FAR-based agreements with Industry, Academic, and National Lab partners whose solutions are favorably evaluated by SOF AT&L PEO-TIS Subject Matter Experts (SMEs). As such, the follow-on Assessment Event (AE) is considered competitive, and solutions will be evaluated independently of one another primarily for technical merit. This serves dually as notification of the intent to research the feasibility of an agreement under 10 U.S. Code, Section 4022 and/or Section 4022(f), and...
