Description

Air Force Research Laboratory, Propulsion Directorate (AFRL/PRPE) solicits research proposals for the Hypersonic Vehicle Electric Power System Technology Program. The objective of this program is to develop magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD), magenetogasdynamic (MGD) and other plasma interaction technologies for integrated power generators and hypersonic engine compressors. These technologies will provide enormous power capabilities for future Air Force aerospace vehicles capable of global interdiction missions as well as strike mission using directed energy weapons. This technology preserves the versatility of air-breathing engines by avoiding the additional weight of carrying oxygen on board for auxiliary power units or fuel cells. Interested offerors may view and/or download the full PRDA solicitation by accessing the Electronic Posting System (EPS) homepage at http://www.eps.gov/. Direct questions to the Contracting point of contact identified in the announcement.
