This notice was posted on August 25, 2025, with an initial due date of September 9, 2025.

The Air Force has provided additional information through attachments including detailed RFI documentation and an Industry Day Q&A session that was posted on September 12, 2025. This Special Notice represents an information-gathering phase for the military's next-generation aerial refueling capabilities.

The primary purpose of this Special Notice is to engage industry stakeholders in providing information and feedback regarding airframe requirements for the Next Generation Air-refueling System through a structured Request for Information process. The notice emphasizes that interested parties should review the attached RFI documentation and Industry Day materials to understand the full scope of information being sought by the Air Force.
