About this award
The U.S. Air Force awarded an Other Transaction Agreement to Wildstar LLC for $154.1 million on August 20, 2024, under the Strategic Funding Increase (STRATFI) Program, with an ultimate completion date of February 1, 2028. This OTA sits outside the Federal Acquisition Regulation and does not require application of standard FAR procurement rules.
The agreement funds the RHONE Demonstration Program, focused on ubiquitous global connectivity and advanced satellite communications. Performance occurs in Beverly, Massachusetts. Wildstar, a small business aerospace and communications technology manufacturer based in Arlington, Texas, operates exclusively as a prime contractor on Air Force and Air Force Research Laboratory advanced research and development programs, with no identified subcontractors on this effort. The vendor's capabilities center on satellite systems innovation, 5G/6G communications development, and satellite power production efficiency. This award represents the largest single item in Wildstar's contract portfolio and one of four Air Force awards carrying combined potential value of $158.1 million; the Air Force enterprise accounts for 100% of the vendor's recent award base. The RHONE program aligns with Wildstar's existing portfolio of satellite communications and connectivity initiatives, including prior SBIR Phase II work on ubiquitous global connectivity solutions and ongoing development of 3GPP 5G/6G satellite systems for IoT applications.
