E-MAIL: Traci Dietz, traci.dietz@wpafb.af.mil. Air Force Research Laboratory, Sensors Directorate, Aerospace Components & Subsystems Concepts Division (AFRL/SNDM ) solicits research proposals for the Aerospace Sensor Component and Subsystem Investigation and Innovation -- 1 (ASCSII-1) -- Component Analysis and Integration -- (CAI) Program. The objective of the ASCSII-1 -- CAI Program is to investigate, model, analyze, develop, test, and demonstrate radio frequency (RF) and photonic component and subsystem technologies for ground, air and space sensor applications including Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR), Command, Control, and Communications (C3), Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) and Electronic Warfare (EW). This program is focused on supporting Air Force and DoD near and far-term requirements and needs. Technology programs must address evolutionary component improvements through technology refinement and optimization processes as well as those of a revolutionary scale that can redefine the way a mission is conducted. Included in the scope of the program are the requirements to investigate, analyze, and focus technologies associated with component and subsystem configuration, producibility, yield, and affordability. Further, the program must have the flexibility to accommodate unanticipated technology developments having short suspense times. The ASCSII-1 -- CAI Program provides for contracted exploratory and advanced development levels of technical effort. The goals are to mature relevant technology to the point that a successful air and/or space demonstration is viable, and to develop integrated air and space concepts that are optimized to meet the critical needs of the above military missions.
