Description
Adversarial, long-range, high-altitude balloons (HABs) represent low-cost threats capable of en masse employment that compromises the confidentiality and security of our nation. We are looking for information on capabilities that address high-altitude balloons using cost-appropriate systems and methodologies that effectively mitigate, neutralize or eliminate associated risks.
Information can be provided in any form (ex. white paper, PowerPoint presentation) and should focus on demonstrating creative solutions capable of operating at high altitudes and addressing multiple targets. The government is interested in learning about solutions that can operate above 50,000 feet, visually detect targets and engage multiple threats with its payload.
Please contact the POCs provided via email with the requested information or follow-on questions.
This is for informational purposes only. No contract shall be awarded as a result of this RFI.
