    Dept Of Defense
    The U.S. Department of Defense issues a Request for Information (RFI) to connect with industry and academic innovators. The goal is to accelerate the development of technologies that aid the warfighter in understanding, protecting against, and mitigating chemical, biological, and radiological (CBR) threats. The RFI seeks interest and solutions for three experimental events: Chemical Biological Operational Analysis (CBOA), a Concept Tent exhibition, and the Tenacious Dragon 3 (TD3) Advanced Technology Demonstration. These events, to be held in 2025, will evaluate submissions based on their relevance to CBR defense and the maturity of their designs. The need for robust CBR defense technologies is paramount in military operations, especially in detecting threats, ensuring force protection, and responding rapidly to hazardous incidents. The focus is on enhancing the capabilities of personnel operating in these dangerous environments, with specific attention to real-time detection, diagnostics, protective equipment, and rapid mitigation methods. Interested parties should submit their solutions, focusing on one capability area, by the deadline of December 12th, 2024, with an interim cutoff in September. Submissions require a Vulcan Scout Card and registration on the Vulcan platform, with industry and government affiliates following different guidelines.
