Added: Dec 07, 2017 2:00 pm Modified: Jan 11, 2018 11:50 amTrack Changes The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is soliciting innovative proposals for the design, development, and testing of a system that will enable small unit tactical operations to persist in electronic warfare (EW) conditions by developing an integrated communication system protecting local, airborne, and reachback communications from exploitation and denial. The Protected Forward Communications (PFC) program will demonstrate maturity of technical elements and produce a qualified system design that reduces the risk of system integration through a structured system engineering approach. The result of PFC is a qualified design with experiential support ready for full development and user trial (DUT) activity. The use of a BAA allows a wide range of innovative ideas and concepts, and offeror(s) will have the flexibility to develop a tailored program plan that best advances the PFC program goals.
