Trusted and Elastic Military Platforms and Electronic Warfare (EW) System Technologies (TEMPEST)

Description

UPDATE July 2026: Update to the Contracting POCs. UPDATE April 2026: Minor administrative updates to convert existing legacy FAR and DFARS citations to Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) and Revolutionary DFARS (R-DFARS) citations. UPDATE January 2026: Minor administrative update to extend the solicitation close date. AFRL/RFW has a need to investigate and develop methodologies, tools, techniques, and capabilities to identify susceptibilities and mitigate vulnerabilities in avionics systems, protect those systems against cyber-attack, provide simulation capabilities required to develop, mature and transition advanced sensor and avionics technologies, develop platform architecture technologies that enable revolutionary and agile capabilities, and expand emerging open system architecture standards and approaches for existing and next-generation Air Force and DoD weapon systems in multi-domain environments. The goal is to explore new and emerging concepts related to development, integration, assessment, evaluation, and demonstration of cyber security, open system architecture (OSA), novel avionics and sensor technologies, and multi-domain technologies. For this solicitation, avionics is defined to include manned, unmanned, autonomous, and remotely piloted vehicles, on-board Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) systems, Electronic Warfare (EW) systems, munitions, and any equipment, component, or subsystem that could compromise mission assurance of the Air Force weapon system or tactical platform.
