About this award
The U.S. Army Research, Development and Engineering Command (RDECOM) awarded a $4.0 million delivery order to Cubrc, Inc., a Buffalo, New York-based non-profit research and development organization, on January 13, 2025. This follow-on contract supports continued operations of the Aerothermal Aero-Optics Evaluation Center (AAEC) in Cheektowaga, New York, with a completion date of January 31, 2026. The delivery order is issued under Cubrc's existing $71 million Army RDECOM single-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) vehicle and is structured as a cost-plus-fixed-fee arrangement with no small business set-aside designation. The contract leverages Cubrc's specialized capabilities in experimental and computational aerodynamics research, aerothermal effects analysis, and high-speed flight dynamics—critical technical domains supporting Army defense priorities.
Cubrc's AAEC facility serves as a strategic asset for the Army, enabling advanced research in hypersonic missile development, aerodynamic heating analysis, and related defense technologies. As a well-established federal contractor with significant prior work for the Army, Air Force Research Laboratory, Office of Naval Research, and DARPA, Cubrc brings substantial technical expertise and infrastructure to this effort. The company maintains multiple federal contract vehicles, including a $4 billion SEAPORT-NXG multiple-award contract with Naval Sea Systems Command and a $15 million Basic Ordering Agreement with the Office of the Secretary of Defense for artificial intelligence data readiness, demonstrating its broad capability portfolio across defense research domains.
