This indefinite delivery contract (IDC) was awarded by the U.S. Air Force to Taitech, Inc., a minority-owned and woman-owned business specializing in aerospace technologies and engineering services. The $31.6 million contract, titled "Technology for Sustained Supersonic Combustion (TSSC)," aims to identify, develop, mature, and demonstrate technologies enabling reusable hypersonic capabilities exceeding Mach 3 for intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, and strike platforms by 2028 and 2035. Under this IDC, Taitech has received multiple delivery orders totaling over $13 million for specific projects related to high-speed air-breathing propulsion and advanced airframe structures/component concepts. The work, which has no set-aside designation, includes research, engineering, and technical services focused on experimental sciences, propulsion systems, structures, modeling, simulation, and vehicle design integration. This work supports the Air Force Research Laboratory's strategic goals in advancing aircraft propulsion and airframe technologies for hypersonic flight and is primarily performed in Beavercreek, Ohio.
