Description
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is issuing this Request for Information (RFI) to gather information on technical solutions and operational concepts for rapidly reconstituting lost or degraded space capabilities. This is in response to the increasing threat of adversarial attacks on U.S. space assets, which could impact critical services like communications, position navigation and timing (PNT), and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR). The agency is interested in solutions that can enable the rapid, responsive, and cost-effective restoration of critical space services within tactical timelines of hours to weeks. This includes innovations in spacecraft design (bus and payload), launch vehicles, integration, and operational concepts. Specific areas of interest include modular and reconfigurable spacecraft, rapid manufacturing and assembly, alternative PNT payloads, and supply chain optimization for satellite production. DARPA encourages participation from a wide range of entities, including universities, research centers, private companies, and government laboratories. Responses should be concise and submitted by July 8, 2026.
