About this award
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency awarded a $5.224 million definitive contract to Verus Research, LLC on September 20, 2021, for the Waveform Agile Radio-Frequency Directed Energy (WARDEN) program, which aims to extend the range of high power microwave back-door attack by a factor of ten beyond current state-of-the-art capability.
The contract is priced on a cost-plus-fixed-fee basis with an ultimate completion date of January 31, 2027. Performance occurs in Albuquerque, NM. The originating pre-solicitation, posted February 26, 2021, with proposals due April 16, 2021, described development of extreme power, broadband amplifiers and agile waveform techniques under PSC R408 and NAICS 541715, with work conducted under the program's three technical areas. Technical Area 1 targeted delivery of the first amplifier meeting specified bandwidth and power-handling goals within 48 months. The opportunity anticipated multiple awards across four phases totaling $51 million, with performance periods beginning October 2021.
