Update #1 ·

Added: Mar 14, 2017 3:25 pm This draft solicitation implements the Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV) strategy to transition from the use of non-allied engines and to implement affordable assured access to space via sustainable competition with commercial providers.  The strategy invests in new and/or upgraded commercial launch solutions that also meet National Security Space (NSS) requirements.  These launch system investments include efforts required to complete the transition off non-allied engines and build upon the Air Force's Booster Propulsion Technology Maturation efforts started in early 2015 and the Rocket Propulsion System investments awarded in early 2016.

The LSA Draft RFP is attached to this announcement. A comment resolution matrix (CRM) is included for any potential solicitors wishing to ask questions, provide feedback, or provide comments on the Draft RFP.
