The U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) is poised to issue a request for information to industry seeking technology that could form the basis for a responsive space launch X-plane demonstrator.
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — The U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) expects to issue a request for information (RFI) “any day now” to industry for a wide array of structures, systems and control technology that could be used as the basis for a hypersonic, responsive space launch demonstrator. The RFI is for the follow-on phase to the Future responsive Access to Space Technologies (FAST) program, which focused on several ground experiments aimed at developing baseline technology for the future demonstrator.
