About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Headquarters District Washington awarded a delivery order totaling $151,097.88 to Black River Systems Company, Inc. on September 25, 2026, for the Ninja Dismount Counter-UAS system under GSA Schedule Contract 47QSWA23D00A9.
The award was made without a set-aside and followed a fair opportunity exception under FAR 16.507-6(b)(2), justified on the basis that Black River Systems Company, Inc. is the sole approved vendor developed under the Small Business Innovation Research program and operated by Air Force Research Laboratory. The Ninja Dismount Kit provides dismounted, lightweight counter-UAS capability for mobile teams, addressing capability gaps in portable operations, real-time UAS identification, 360-degree radio frequency coverage, and integration with field personnel workflows.
Procurement was executed by the 316th Contracting Squadron at Joint Base Andrews, Maryland. GSA determined that schedule pricing was fair and reasonable, eliminating the need for separate pricing evaluation. The Air Force intends to explore alternative security system options through open market approaches if they become available in the future.
