About this forecast

The Department of the Navy Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command is procuring development and production of the MIDS SF3 radio, a software-defined radio platform capable of handling SECRET and below classified data with NSA CHVP certification. The MIDS WDL SF3 design must incorporate embedded cryptographic engines with software-configurable cryptographic capability to host software-defined Cryptographic Equipment Algorithms and networking waveform COMSEC/TRANSEC algorithms, and must support certified operation across different classification levels. The solicitation is estimated to release on January 1, 2026, with award anticipated by July 1, 2026.

NAVWAR is issuing this single-award indefinite-delivery fixed-price contract with an estimated value between $50 million and $100 million. Work is performed in San Diego, California, and contractor facilities and personnel must maintain Secret security clearances. Interested vendors should monitor NAVAIR's procurement portal for the formal solicitation release during the second fiscal quarter of 2026.
