    The “20-21 January 2026 PBAS Industry Days Questionnaire” outlines requirements for companies interested in participating in the PBAS Industry Days. It requests comprehensive company background information, including CAGE codes, DoD contractor authorization, business type, and attendee citizenship status with CUI access validation. The questionnaire also seeks detailed system-specific information, such as system name, description, weight of air vehicle (AV) platforms, NDAA and MOSA compliance, and DIU Blue list status. Furthermore, it probes into system performance, covering munition/fuze types, payload capacity, electrical components, battery specifications, endurance, range, speed, communication frequencies, encryption, and navigation capabilities, alongside environmental testing and maintenance. Pricing and production capabilities, including unit prices, lead times, and monthly production rates, are also requested. Finally, the document emphasizes system architecture and common controller integration, focusing on Modular Open System Approach (MOSA) and Future Airborne Capability Environment (FACE) conformant architectures, particularly for command and control of small Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (sUAS) and integration with existing Army systems like NettWarrior.
