supply chain management, logistics coordination, target identifications and simulation
Prove a decision-as-a-program capability that turns complex engineering/acquisition questions into structured, auditable Decision Packages – faster, with higher confidence. This opportunity will be open for both SBIR and STTR participation.
The United States currently faces an “unprecedented” military buildup by China and increasing air and missile threats that demand a robust deterrent. However, the current inventory of long-range strike weapons is dominated by high-cost, low-volume systems or aging strategic assets like the Minuteman III, which dates back to the 1960s. The lack of a cost-effective, ground-launched payload delivery system prevents the Joint Force from achieving producibility at scale, leaving the U.S. vulnerable in high-intensity, multi-domain environments where high-end munitions would be rapidly depleted. The objective of this topic is

Develop and integrate a distributed Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology that can collaboratively command and control a multi-agent Group 1 or Group 2 Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) swarm to defend an area against a numerically superior enemy swarm. AI system must be able to interface with existing, standard platform autonomy and perception systems. System must also not rely on a centralized control node.

The U.S. Army is seeking innovative technology solutions from eligible small businesses across the U.S. through the Expeditionary Technology Search (xTechSearch) competition. This platform offers participants the opportunity to pitch novel technology solutions—whether a new application for an existing technology or an entirely new technology concept—to the Army, engage with the Department of Defense (DoD), earn prize money, join an accelerator program, and winners will have the opportunity to submit a Phase I Army Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) proposal.
The Army SBIR program is partnering with the xTech program to launch xTechOverwatch, a prize competition designed to identify and advance cutting-edge technology solutions for the Army. With up to $1 million in cash prizes, this competition provides small businesses with a unique opportunity to showcase their innovations while receiving valuable feedback from technical experts, acquisition professionals, and end-users.
