About this opportunity
Air Combat Command has awarded a sole-source contract to uAvionics Technologies sp. z o.o. (CAGE 9BVHH) for procurement of 145 Commercial-Off-the-Shelf Dingo small Unmanned Aerial Systems on a firm-fixed-price basis under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1). Award date is August 12, 2026; estimated contract value is less than $10 million.
The justification rests on uAvionics as the only responsible source capable of meeting minimum essential requirements for Task Force 99 operations in the CENTCOM Area of Responsibility. The Dingo platform's unique AirHybrid propulsion technology delivers over 20 hours of continuous flight endurance while carrying an 11 kilogram multi-sensor payload—a capability combination that no other COTS small UAS demonstrated during the TITAN HOPLITE 3 operational evaluation in December 2025. Market research, including formal Request for Information and industry outreach coordinated by the AFCENT Battle Lab, confirmed no competing systems provide the extreme endurance, payload capacity, and rapid deployment capability required for long-endurance aerial surveillance and force protection operations.
The procurement includes 145 uAvionics Dingo (S-410 Tiguar) base airframes, integrated stock IP radios, and DC 48V to 24V stepdown circuits for future Government-led Starshield antenna integration. Contracting Officer Kelsey Brightbill, GS-13, USAF, signed the justification in March 2026.
