About the company
Gambit Defense, Inc., a small business technology contractor based in Valley Village, California, develops artificial intelligence, machine learning, and mesh networking solutions for military communications and counter-unmanned systems as a prime contractor (78% of recent awards) and subcontractor, with all recent work executed through Other Transaction Agreements, Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR), and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) vehicles focused on tactical edge AI and spectrum management technologies for the Department of Defense.
The vendor's customer base centers on defense research and development organizations. The Air Force Research Laboratory leads the funding footprint with four awards worth $3.5 million combined potential value, followed by the Office of the Secretary of Defense with two awards totaling $2.4 million, and the Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Command and TACOM Life Cycle Management Command with supporting engagements. All four distinct customer agencies listed are DoD components, reflecting Gambit Defense's exclusive focus on military technology development rather than civilian federal work.
Gambit Defense's recent project portfolio centers on counter-unmanned aircraft systems and mesh networking research. The most recent award, a $1.5 million OTA from the Office of the Secretary of Defense issued June 12, 2026, covers prototype research and engineering services in advanced defense technologies, with completion scheduled for December 14, 2027. Earlier work includes two Phase II SBIR/STTR awards from the Air Force Research Laboratory (NEURON, a $1.511 million mesh networking effort, and CORTEX, a $1.789 million counter-UAS AI/ML project, both awarded August 2025 and running through mid-2027), a $925 thousand OTA from the Office of the Secretary of Defense for GAMBIT incremental funding (February 2026), and a $100 thousand OTA from TACOM for virtual wargaming capabilities in the Government Virtual Simulation Center counter-UAS environment (July 2025). Gambit Defense holds a position on ASTRO with two task orders, the parent vehicle for some of the Phase I SBIR/STTR work.
Four awards with combined potential value of $5.7 million reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing recompete opportunity in that window. The vendor's subcontractor footprint includes two sub-awards to CACI, Inc. Federal—one for the Global Operational Support Information Insight and Threat (GOSIIT) Software/Firmware effort (October 2025) and one for GOSIIT Hardware (March 2026)—positioning Gambit Defense as a specialized AI/ML and communications engineering sub on larger CACI defense programs. Recent activity shows six awards in 2025 and three in 2026 year to date, with combined potential value across all nine awards at $6 million and obligated dollars at $5.3 million (88% of potential value).
