About this award

The U.S. Air Force Academy awarded a $750,000 firm-fixed-price purchase order to Teal Drones Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business and subsidiary of Red Cat Holdings, Inc., to procure Teal 2 unmanned aircraft systems under a total small business set-aside competition. The solicitation, posted September 26, 2025, and awarded September 30, 2025, seeks to purchase as many Teal 2 drones as possible within the budget ceiling to support airmanship training operations. The Teal 2 platform meets specified technical requirements including 30+ minute flight endurance, dual-axis electro-optical/infrared gimbal with 16-megapixel sensor and 640x512 infrared resolution, 10,000-foot maximum ceiling, and 5-kilometer operational range. This procurement represents a final opportunity to acquire additional Teal 2 inventory, as the contractor has discontinued future production of this system.

Performance will be executed at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado, with delivery required by December 31, 2025. The competition was limited to two small businesses—Teal Drones Inc. and Atlantic Diving Supply, Inc.—with award selection based on best-value evaluation of price, technical delivery schedule, and past performance. This procurement supports USAFA's efforts to maintain operational continuity with its current 100-drone inventory before transitioning to upgraded platforms for future training missions. Teal Drones has established a strong track record across federal agencies, including holding multiple indefinite delivery vehicles totaling over $96 million in cumulative contract value with the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Interior, General Services Administration, and U.S. Army.
