About this award

RTX Corporation's Technology Research Center was awarded a $1.30 million cost-no-fee definitive contract on June 5, 2019, to develop an Integrated Blade Root Electromechanical Actuator (IBREMA) under the Research Development and Engineering Command's Innovative Rotor System Applied Technologies program. The contract, which will be performed in Hartford, Connecticut, and completed by September 30, 2025, focuses on designing electromechanical actuators to support next-generation rotorcraft applications, including Future Vertical Lift platforms and NextGen unmanned aircraft systems. This award originated from a special notice solicitation posted in September 2018 and was made without any small business set-aside designation.

The electromechanical actuators developed under this contract will advance rotorcraft technology by replacing traditional hydraulic systems with more efficient electric alternatives, a critical capability for modernizing military helicopter and unmanned aircraft platforms. RDTE funding from the Army's development and engineering command reflects the strategic importance of this technology to the service's aviation modernization initiatives. The contract's cost-no-fee structure indicates a collaborative research partnership, with RTX Corporation's established expertise in advanced aerospace systems and actuator technology positioning the company to deliver innovative solutions that support the Army's rotorcraft fleet modernization efforts.

Description

Ibrema: integrated blade root electromechanical actuator, united technology research center (utrc) will address the innovative rotor system applied technologies request to develop electromechanical actuators (emas) to support future rotorcraft applications including future vertical lift and nexgen UAS.
