Description

Between the dates listed above, DARPA STO will be actively �shopping� the ERIS Marketplace for innovative, post-competitive, awardable solutions that address the need for moderate power (1-20 kW) high energy lasers that can be operated at high duty cycle in SWaP constrained systems such as Stryker vehicles or Collaborative Combat Aircraft. This is an active and immediate search for solutions. Submissions will be reviewed on a rolling basis as they are received, and the Government reserves the right to make one or more awards prior to the closing date of this notice.
