Opportunity Information: Apply for ROTO W911NF 12 R 0011
The Rotorcraft Situational Awareness Radar opportunity is a Department of Defense research solicitation issued by the U.S. Army Research Laboratory (ARL) under the Army Materiel Command. It is released as a Special Notice tied to a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) and is aimed at applied research rather than basic science or full-scale production. The core purpose is to develop and demonstrate a single radar capability intended to improve situational awareness for rotorcraft, with an emphasis on building a demonstration radar that can be evaluated in a realistic operating environment. In practical terms, this means the government is looking for a tangible prototype or demonstrator-level radar system (or a tightly integrated demonstration configuration) that can be tested under conditions that approximate real-world use, instead of purely analytical studies or small laboratory experiments.
The funding mechanism for this opportunity is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically indicates the government expects to have substantial involvement during the project (for example, collaboration on technical direction, test planning, or integration with government-provided resources). The opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding within the Science and Technology and other Research and Development area, and it is associated with CFDA number 12.431. The solicitation anticipates making about two awards, with an award ceiling listed at $400,000, suggesting relatively focused, mid-sized applied R&D efforts rather than long-term multi-million-dollar programs.
Eligibility is broad and includes state governments, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding universities where applicable), individuals, for-profit organizations other than small businesses, and small businesses. This wide eligibility range indicates ARL is open to solutions from academia, industry, nonprofit research groups, and potentially individual innovators, as long as they can credibly execute the applied research and deliver a testable demonstration radar concept.
Administratively, the opportunity is identified as "ROTO W911NF 12 R 0011" and was created on January 31, 2017, with an original closing date of February 24, 2017. The solicitation language emphasizes that additional details are contained in the announcement document, which would normally include the specific technical objectives, required deliverables, testing expectations, proposal instructions, evaluation criteria, and any constraints such as size/weight/power considerations, platform integration assumptions, data rights, security requirements, or test range access. Overall, the grant is best understood as a targeted ARL applied research effort intended to move rotorcraft situational awareness radar from concept and component development into a single, integrated demonstration that can be validated through realistic testing.Apply for ROTO W911NF 12 R 0011
