Southwest Research Institute has been awarded a definitive cost-plus-fixed-fee contract valued at approximately $7.3 million by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency to develop artificial intelligence techniques for the symbiotic design of military-relevant cyber-physical systems. Under this award, Southwest Research Institute will deliver an aeronautical simulation of an air taxi that utilizes hybrid or electric propulsion systems. Work will be performed in Greenville, Texas over a four-year period through September 2024. Vanderbilt University Sponsored Programs Administration Division has been selected as a major subcontractor to provide modeling across the full development lifecycle for an array of air taxis. There is no set-aside designation for this award made under the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's Symbiotic Design for Cyber Physical Systems broad agency announcement seeking proposals to advance revolutionary design capabilities for military systems.
