About this award
Iqinetics Technologies Inc., a small business specializing in advanced propulsion systems and unmanned aircraft technologies, was awarded a $1.25M Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II contract by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) on October 19, 2023. Under this total small business set-aside contract, Iqinetics will develop underactuated small unmanned aircraft systems (SUAS) designed for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) operations in urban environments. The work is scheduled for completion by August 1, 2025, and will be performed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This Phase II award builds on the company's previous Phase I work with AFRL and represents continued investment in innovative propulsion technologies that enhance UAV capabilities for defense applications.
The contract demonstrates AFRL's commitment to supporting small businesses in advancing unmanned systems capabilities, particularly in developing more efficient and maneuverable aerial platforms for complex operational environments. Iqinetics' expertise in underactuated propulsion systems and electric motor technology positions the company to deliver novel solutions that improve flight endurance, maneuverability, and reliability—key requirements for urban ISR missions where space constraints and operational complexity demand advanced engineering solutions. The firm fixed price structure establishes clear cost parameters while allowing the company to focus resources on technical innovation during the two-year performance period.
