The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) has celebrated a milestone achievement for the State-of-the-Art Heterogeneous Integrated Packaging (SHIP) Program under the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering (OUSD(R&E)) with the delivery of the first SHIP prototype devices from Intel and Qorvo to BAE Systems, Inc.
Space Enterprise Consortium (SpEC), managed by National Security Technology Accelerator has awarded $18 million to General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT) for the Enigma prototype project. The Enigma project will support Space Systems Command (SSC) in building the USSF’s digital backbone in support of the acquisition mission.
Russia is amping up is hypersonics weapons campaigns against Ukraine. North Korea recently claimed it has tested their own fleet of hypersonic missiles, a claim that has been deemed credible. Top U.S. generals openly state that China’s hypersonic developments are “very concerning”.
Did you know that the Space Enterprise Consortium (SpEC), Space System Command’s Other Transaction Agreements (OTAs) vehicle, has awarded nearly $2 billion in government contracts since its inception? And did you also know that 60 percent of those contracts include new, non-traditional defense innovators?
The Additively Manufactured Prototypes (AMP) for Hardware Technology Protection (HTP) has been awarded utilizing the Strategic & Spectrum Missions Advanced Resilient Trusted Systems (S²MARTS) Other Transaction Authority (OTA) vehicle. The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division has awarded $1.6 Million to Mercury Systems, Raytheon, Charles Stark Draper, Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, and Lockheed Martin.
The United States is in a hypersonic race against two of the world’s most advanced militaries, Russia and China. With the potential that Hypersonic technology holds, we must consider the impact of it in the hands of other nations.
Since its inception in 2019, S²MARTS has effectively been able to move forward multiple contracts to support the Department of the Navy and America’s Warfighters. Now, celebrating its four-year anniversary S²MARTS has awarded over $1 Billion in government contracts. The management of S²MARTS by NSTXL and its close relationship with NSWC Crane has led to S²MARTS undeniable success.
Visit the Space Enterprise Consortium (SpEC) team at Space Mobility and SpaceCom in Orlando, Florida February 21-23rd in booth #423. Learn how year-over-year, the SpEC network has continuously grown by 36%, awarding almost $2 billion in contracts, 60% of which has gone to new technology innovators.
The idea of classification hints at a fundamentally different type of ML algorithms: Unsupervised Learning. In Unsupervised Learning, there are no longer pre-labeled data sets for training; the algorithms instead identify natural groupings within the data, known as Clusters.
The Microelectronics Commons program is a first of its kind approach aimed at decreasing our dependency on other nations for microelectronics. The Department of Defense is looking to cast a wide net on the technology industry and Defense Industrial Base (DIB) to innovate and collaborate to successfully deliver on a project of this scale.
