Unmanned Aerospace LLC

Unmanned Aerospace LLC is a San Diego-based self-certified small disadvantaged business that subcontracts exclusively to prime contractors on federal R&D programs, with all three recent awards routed through Navmar Applied Sciences Corp to the Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center. The vendor does not hold prime contracts or IDVs; its entire footprint consists of contract sub-awards totaling $2.7 million obligated across 2024, all under NAICS 541713 (Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences).

Unmanned Aerospace specializes in hydrogen-fuel-cell and internal-combustion-engine powertrains for unmanned aerial systems. The vendor's three sub-awards, all placed under Navmar Applied Sciences Corp between June and December 2024, focus on propulsion system integration and cargo delivery demonstration for the ENGAGED project's hydrogen-powered gyroplane platform. Work includes Phase I air vehicle development under contracts 23F0439 and 23F0452, where Unmanned Aerospace is responsible for demonstrating that the GH-4 UAS aircraft equipped with either H2 fuel cell or ICEH powertrains can carry and deliver cargo packages, and an SBIR Phase III effort (designated N04-266, N08-023, N92-170, N94-178) developing the hydrogen-powered gyroplane platform itself.

Navy Naval Air Warfare Center represents 100% of identified customer agency concentration. The vendor operates under two Navy Basic Ordering Agreements: N6833518G0033 (2 task orders) and N6893622G0002 (1 task order). Activity is limited to 2024, with no awards in preceding or subsequent years visible in the source data. As a pure subcontractor with no direct prime or IDV positions, Unmanned Aerospace carries zero recompete exposure on its own — all recompete and vehicle management risk rest with Navmar Applied Sciences Corp.
