About this award

The U.S. Marine Corps awarded a $1.5M Small Business Innovation Research Phase II contract to Triton Systems, Inc., a small business based in Chelmsford, Massachusetts, for research and development of powered paraglider technology. This cost-plus-fixed-fee definitive contract carries a total small business set-aside designation and runs through September 29, 2027. Triton Systems will perform the work at its Chelmsford facility, leveraging its extensive expertise in aerospace and defense technologies developed through prior federal contracts with the Department of Defense and related agencies.

The SBIR Phase II award represents the second phase of development for this innovative powered paraglider capability, building on successful Phase I research. Triton Systems brings considerable experience in advanced aerospace and defense R&D across its portfolio, including prior work on hypersonic systems, unmanned maritime platforms, and sensor technologies. The company's demonstrated track record with federal research programs, combined with its active participation in SeaPort-NxG and Unmanned Surface Vehicle Family of Systems contracts, positions it well to advance this Marine Corps-sponsored technology toward potential operational application.
