The key products and services being delivered under this federal contract IDV award to Cubrc, Inc., a non-profit research and development company, are experimental and computational research related to aerothermal and aero-optics phenomena at hypersonic speeds. The $71 million Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract is operated by the U.S. Army Research, Development and Engineering Command (RDECOM), a defense agency, and allows for the issuance of task orders for this research.
Several task orders have been awarded under this IDIQ, ranging from $4 million to $16 million, with the work performed at Cubrc's facility in Cheektowaga, New York. The task orders are focused on continued operation and development of the Aerothermal Aero-Optics Evaluation Center (AAEC), which Cubrc manages to support the Army and other defense agencies like the Air Force and DARPA in evaluating flight dynamics and aerodynamic heating effects on high-speed vehicles. Cubrc frequently partners with subcontractors such as Raytheon, University of Notre Dame, and Rochester Institute of Technology on these specialized research efforts.
