The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) announces a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) titled "Targeting Operations and Analytics Development" (BAA: FA8750-25-S-7002), which is open until September 30, 2029. The BAA seeks innovative research to enhance the joint targeting cycle, aiming to shorten kill chains, increase operational awareness, and improve situation assessments. Suggested funding for the BAA totals approximately $499 million, with individual awards ranging from $1 million to $25 million, and exceptions up to $99.9 million. Proposals should address areas such as dynamic targeting engagement, secure communications, combat assessment, and analytics for indications and warnings. Only white papers are initially accepted for consideration, with submission dates recommended for alignment with funding allocations from fiscal years 2025 to 2029. The Air Force reserves the right to award none, some, or all proposals based on quality and funding outcomes. Participation is limited to U.S.-based entities, excluding foreign involvement, unless certain conditions of fundamental research are met. Important considerations for proposals include security risk assessments and compliance with federal regulations, particularly concerning human subjects. The overall goal is to drive advancements in military targeting capabilities to enhance strategic effectiveness.
