About this award
The U.S. Air Force awarded a $268,336 delivery order to The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory LLC (APL) on May 30, 2025, for work on the High-Speed Affordable Mass Study, with performance concluding by December 31, 2025. The contract employs cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing and is not set aside for any specific socioeconomic category. APL, a not-for-profit university-affiliated research center headquartered in Laurel, Maryland, will perform the work at its Laurel facility. This delivery order is issued under one of APL's existing Air Force Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) vehicles valued at approximately $95 million and focused on space science and engineering capabilities.
APL's technical expertise and established relationship with the Air Force through its space science IDIQ position it well to support this research initiative. As a premier federally funded research and development center, APL regularly delivers advanced systems engineering, research, development, test, and evaluation services across national security and scientific domains, including space system design and prototype development. The high-speed affordable mass study likely supports Air Force space modernization or technology maturation objectives, leveraging APL's demonstrated capabilities in complex aerospace engineering and advanced research.
