The Government is seeking innovative, mature (TRL 6+) Electromagnetic Support (ES) and Electromagnetic Attack (EA) capabilities to equip Brigade Electromagnetic Warfare Teams for Multi-Domain Operations. To ensure freedom of maneuver in the electromagnetic spectrum, the Government requires lightweight, ruggedized, and highly extensible solutions across five target operational tracks: (1) Dismounted EW Systems featuring wearable sensors and on-the-move detection, geolocation, and disruption capabilities designed for MOS-agnostic Soldiers. (2) Platform and Vehicle Integration for modular, mounted operations and robust command and control. (3) Cognitive EW Software delivering hardware-agnostic, AI/ML-driven threat adaptation and rapid reprogramming. (4) Unattended Ground Sensors for remote, persistent RF detection and targeted electronic attack. (5) sUAS Integration utilizing hot-swappable aerial payloads for stand-off reconnaissance, cyber effects, and electronic defeat. RESPONSES. It is anticipated that the information and solutions gathered from this request will directly inform and lead to potential production contract award(s) projected for early to mid-Fiscal Year 2028 (FY28). Please send all responses to: usarmy.apg.cpe-isw.mbx.pdm-tsw-te@army.mil. White Papers must be received by 30 September 2026 for consideration.
