About this award
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Research Laboratory awarded a $149,426 Firm Fixed Price contract to Archer Aviation Inc., a small business manufacturer, to conduct Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I research and development on precision landing localization technology for autonomous electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. This contract builds on Archer Aviation's previous federal work with the Air Force, which has involved eVTOL flight testing, vehicle performance characterization, and development of enabling technologies such as terrain avoidance and precision navigation. The Air Force currently holds an indefinite delivery contract with Archer valued at $110 million to advance the company's autonomous flight capabilities, leveraging its prior Small Business Innovation Research efforts. This new award reflects the Air Force's continued investment in Archer's eVTOL technologies to support future unmanned aerial vehicle operations.
