About this IDV
The Department of the Air Force awarded Kratos Unmanned Aerial Systems, Inc. an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity multiple award contract known as the Skyborg Prototyping, Experimentation and Autonomy Development (SPEAD) contract, with a potential value of $400 million. The SPEAD aims to develop and demonstrate prototype unmanned aircraft capable of autonomous flight and teaming with manned platforms to support Department of Defense missions. No socioeconomic set-aside provisions were specified.
Kratos has received two task orders against the SPEAD. A $37.8 million order for Skyborg Experimental Host-Aircraft systems to support the SPEAD program through March 2023 in Sacramento, California. A $4,000 firm fixed price order for a kick-off meeting, to be performed July-September 2020 in Poway, California. The originating broad agency announcement sought proposals to establish IDIQ contracts through 2025 for developing and integrating autonomous capabilities for unmanned air systems. The long-term objective is to field an affordable autonomous mission system via the Skyborg program.
