About this award
Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation was awarded a $11.9 million cost-plus-fixed-fee definitive contract by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) on May 7, 2020, for the Focal Arrays for Curved Infrared Imagers (FOCII) program. The contract, which incorporates a revised Statement of Work, supports DARPA's initiative to develop focal plane array technology capable of extreme curvature for next-generation infrared imaging systems. The program aims to curve existing large-format and small-prototype mid- and longwave infrared detectors to spherical radii as tight as 12.5 millimeters without modifying standard fabrication processes, with target applications in defense imaging systems. Work is being performed at Northrop Grumman's Electronic Systems Division facility in San Diego, California, with an ultimate completion date of November 30, 2025. The contract contains no set-aside designation, reflecting open competition among eligible contractors.
The effort includes coordination with American IR Solutions LLC (doing business as Airs), which serves as a subcontractor providing human resources services and leveraging its expertise in infrared imaging devices and electronic component fabrication. Northrop Grumman, as the Electronic Systems Division of the parent Northrop Grumman Corporation, brings substantial experience in advanced sensor technologies and electronic warfare systems to this research and development initiative. This contract represents DARPA's strategy to enable rapid advancement of curved focal plane array technologies through competitive contracting with industry partners possessing specialized capabilities in infrared detector development and manufacturing.
