Elevator Pitch
The US Army is actively funding startups that build for ground combat, from low-cost interceptors to sensors, drones, resilient logistics and manufacturing that plug into its open system architecture.
Get involved
Full Description
In this request the Army says warfare is at an inflection point and its old acquisition methods can't keep pace with modern threats, so it has torn up the old playbook in favor of commercially developed, modular open-system solutions. Threats change daily, and the Army must dominate everywhere from the Arctic to subterranean environments.
The ask:
- •Low-cost interceptors, or any component that lowers the cost per kill
- •Next-gen sensors, software, payloads and other hardware that plug directly into the Army's open system architecture
- •Cutting-edge drones, resilient logistics and advanced manufacturing, all able to survive the most extreme climates on Earth
In return, the Army offers founders capital and a proving ground to scale.
