This pre-solicitation notice invites industry participation in the aircraft manufacturing sector, with responses due by October 24, 2025. The RFI is designed to gather industry insights on airframe capabilities and solutions for next-generation air-refueling platforms. Interested parties should consult the detailed RFI attachment and accompanying workbook for specific requirements and evaluation criteria. An industry day was held on August 25, 2025, with details available under Notice ID FA8688-RFI-25-0002. As of October 21, 2025, companies should contact Captain Jason Kyles at jason.kyles.1@us.af.mil to obtain DoD SAFE drop-box submission instructions for submitting unclassified and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) responses.

This pre-solicitation notice does not utilize any small business set-asides or other socioeconomic designations. The notice does not specify incumbent contractors, award values, or budget ranges at this stage, as it is designed primarily to solicit industry feedback and technical information rather than announce a formal competitive solicitation. The RFI workbook and supporting documentation contain additional numerical details, technical specifications, and timeline information necessary for interested contractors to formulate comprehensive responses. Organizations in the aircraft manufacturing industry should prioritize obtaining the complete RFI documentation to understand all submission requirements and technical parameters before the October 24, 2025 deadline.
