About this award
The U.S. Air Force's Air Combat Command awarded a $4.25 million firm fixed-price purchase order to Electric Propulsion Technologies, LLC for development of an electric ionic propulsion engine under the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II Commercialization (D2P2) program. The contract, awarded on March 1, 2023, with completion targeted for August 1, 2023, represents a total small business set-aside. Work will be performed in Heath, Texas. The electric ionic propulsion engine technology addresses advanced propulsion requirements and reflects the Department of Defense's continued investment in next-generation propulsion systems through its SBIR initiative, which supports innovative small business solutions to critical military needs.
Electric Propulsion Technologies, LLC, identified by UEI MQ4GF2XZFJH6, serves as the prime contractor on this effort. The D2P2 program component indicates this represents a commercialization phase award, supporting the transition of SBIR-developed technologies toward practical military application. The compressed performance schedule and firm fixed-price structure suggest a focused development and delivery timeline aligned with Air Combat Command's propulsion modernization objectives.
