Air Force: BROAD AGENCY ANNOUNCEMENT (BAA) $100 million in total funding is up for grabs.
What are they looking for? Artificial intelligence for next-gen command and control.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is poised to revolutionize the Department of the Air Force (DAF) and Joint Force Command and Control (C2) across all levels, enhancing decision-making and battlespace assessment. This BAA aims to explore innovative AI and distributed C2 concepts, emphasizing the rapid R&D of AI-based capabilities for Joint All Domain C2. As AI applications grow, challenges arise in managing and adapting these capabilities in contested environments.
Distributed operations are vital for Next-Generation C2. The DAF's shift from a singular C2 node to multiple distributed nodes hinges on optimizing operational processes with limited resources. By advancing distributed C2, the DAF envisions a nimble, mobile, and virtualized operational capability. This BAA focuses on areas like AI application in C2, battle management techniques, considering adversary AI use in C2 planning, and enabling distributed C2 anywhere.
