About this award

The Office of Naval Research awarded a definitive cost-plus-fixed-fee contract to Keyspoke Software LLC for the development of a side-looking aperture radar (SLAR) system optimized for enhanced coherent gain. The contract, valued at $9.96 million, focuses on a radar configuration that prioritizes signal coherence by sacrificing coverage area through a perpendicular staring geometry relative to aircraft trajectory. This approach enables coherent combination of radar data, supporting improved detection and imaging capabilities for naval operations. The contract is unencumbered by set-aside provisions and will be performed in Rochester, New York.

The contract extends through September 10, 2029, with award date of September 11, 2025, allowing for a four-year development and delivery timeline. As a cost-plus-fixed-fee arrangement, ONR has structured the contract to accommodate the technical complexity and potential unknowns inherent in advanced radar system development while maintaining cost visibility through fixed fee provisions. This contract supports the Navy's ongoing investments in advanced sensing and surveillance technologies essential to maritime domain awareness and force protection missions.

Description

We propose the development of a side-looking aperture radar system that optimizes coherent gain by sacrificing coverage area. Configuring the radar to stare perpendicular to the aircrafts trajectory allows for the coherent combination of data.
