Research Engineering Development and Analysis for Cyber Targeting (Updated)

The Air Force Research Laboratory seeks innovative research proposals for developing adversary system-of-systems analysis to support Air Force, USCYBERCOM, and mission partners in optimizing Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTP) against evolving cyber threats. The open 2-Step ARA accepts white papers until December 2030, with formal proposals by invitation only, focusing on requirements evaluation, proof-of-concept development, and deployment in operationally realistic environments. Total funding is approximately $999.9M, with multiple awards anticipated via FAR-based contracts or Other Transactions.
