About this award
The University of Central Florida Board of Trustees, through its Office of Research Division, has been awarded a $105,000 firm fixed-price purchase order by the Air Force Research Laboratory to support high power laser delivery at 2 microns using hollow core fibers. The work will be performed at UCF's Alafaya, Florida campus and is scheduled for completion by October 30, 2026. This award was issued without a small business set-aside and represents a focused research and development effort aligned with AFRL's directed energy source component research priorities under the agency's Advanced Research Announcement FA9451-21-S-0001, which solicits proposals across multiple directed energy technical topic areas including beam control, atmospheric compensation, and related laboratory support services.
UCF's Office of Research Division brings substantial experience delivering specialized technical services and research support to federal defense agencies, with prior contract awards from AFRL, Naval Air Warfare Center, Naval Sea Systems Command, and other Department of Defense entities. The university's technical expertise spans optics, photonics, and directed energy applications, positioning it to execute this laser delivery research initiative. This purchase order complements UCF's existing federal research portfolio, which includes active indefinite delivery vehicles with the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, and demonstrates the institution's continued role as a key research partner supporting national defense and advanced technology development objectives.
