The Department of the Air Force has made an initial announcement for the development of next-generation artificial intelligence and distributed capabilities to support the Department of Defense’s Joint All Domain Command and Control initiative.
DAF is allocating $99 million in funding for the broad agency announcement over five years to facilitate research, development, integration, testing and evaluation of novel AI technologies and techniques to enable command and control in distributed environments, according to a notice posted Thursday on SAM.gov.
Work over five years will focus on eight technical areas: command and control of AI systems to achieve mission-tailored AI; federated, composable autonomy and AI toolbox; advanced wargaming agents; interactive learning for command, control, communications, computers and intelligence; C2 complexity dominance; generative AI for C4I; software-defined, distributed C2; and tactical AI.
DAF will name multiple awardees for the effort. Individual awards are expected to range from $200,000 to $20 million and run for 48 months.
The two-step BAA will be open until Aug. 30, 2028, and submission dates for white papers will be aligned with funding for fiscal years 2024 to 2028. Formal proposals will only be solicited from vendors whose white papers were selected.
