About this award

The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) awarded a $1.25M Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract to NCX Corporation for the VANTAGE (Versatile Array Nanotube Tomography for Advanced Ground Exploitation) project. This firm fixed-price purchase order, designated as a total small business set-aside, represents continued federal investment in NCX Corp's nanotube-based imaging technology following successful Phase I validation. The contract extends through March 2027, with work to be performed at the company's facility in Raleigh, North Carolina.

The VANTAGE initiative focuses on developing advanced nanotube tomography capabilities for ground-based exploitation applications, leveraging nanotechnology to enhance imaging and sensing systems. As a Phase II SBIR award, this contract supports NCX Corporation's commercialization pathway for innovative defense technologies, with AFRL's investment aimed at transitioning laboratory capabilities toward operationally relevant systems. The set-aside designation ensures small business participation in critical research and development activities within the Air Force's technology portfolio.
