About this award

The Office of the Secretary of Defense awarded Parallel Flight Technologies, Inc. a $3 million Other Transaction Agreement on September 15, 2023, for the development and delivery of hybrid small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS) supporting intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) experimentation. The contract, which operates under an Other Transaction pricing structure without small business set-aside designation, is scheduled for completion by February 28, 2026. Parallel Flight Technologies, a for-profit manufacturer headquartered in Watsonville, California, specializes in unmanned aerial vehicles and advanced propulsion systems designed for heavy-lift applications and sustainable vertical flight solutions.

This OTA reflects the Department of Defense's interest in advancing hybrid electric propulsion technologies for small UAS platforms capable of extended operational endurance and payload capacity for military ISR missions. Parallel Flight Technologies has demonstrated substantial technical capability through multiple federal contract awards, including a recently awarded $3.74 million Phase II Small Business Innovation Research contract from the Office of Naval Research focused on sustainable vertical flight solutions. The company's experience in developing hybrid electric platforms for both defense applications and civilian government missions, combined with its track record in federal engagement across multiple agencies and contract vehicles, positions it as a capable small business partner for advancing cutting-edge aerial platform technologies.
