About this award
The U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory awarded a $744,796 firm-fixed-price purchase order contract to Archer Aviation Inc., a small business, for the development of precision landing localization technology for autonomous electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft in GPS-denied environments. This STTR Phase II contract will support research and development to advance Archer's terrain avoidance and precision navigation capabilities, known as "Archer Midnight," to enable unmanned aerial vehicle operations without reliance on visual systems or GPS. The contract is part of a larger $110 million indefinite delivery contract vehicle held by Archer with the Air Force Research Laboratory to further refine the company's autonomous flight technologies over a five-year period.
