About this opportunity

This Award Notice from the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Research Laboratory awards General Electric Company a contract valued at $18,585,256 to develop a prototype compact power generation solution for long-duration hypersonic vehicles. Over the base effort and two option periods, General Electric will develop optimization models, assess subsystem designs, fabricate components, and ground test a prototype generator to maximize performance for future hypersonic aircraft.

Notice text

This award is based off a white paper submitted in response to a BAA.  This is not a firm-fixed price contract due to the research nature of the effort.  This effort will seek to evaluate various high TRL Compact Power Generation solutions to develop a prototype design for use in future hypersonic vehicles. More specifically, during the Base effort, the offeror will develop several models and run optimization studies to maximize system performance. During the Option 1 effort, the offeror will assess the design of subsystem components. It will then fabricate all necessary components in-house. Finally, during the Option 2 effort, the offeror will provide test plans and ground test the prototype.

Awarded contract FA8650-22-C-2401 to General Electric Company, GE Research for 18582556.00 on 2022-09-29.
