- Description
- The Defense Advanced Research Agency (DARPA) intends to release a Program Solicitation for the Oblique Flying Wing (OFW) Advanced Technology Demonstration program on or about June 6, 2005. The goal of the OFW program is to expand the design space for future aircraft concepts, particularly for those missions that demand both supersonic speed and long endurance. The OFW program seeks to tackle the most daunting problems in aerodynamic control, aero-structural design, and propulsion integration with a supersonic, tailless, X-Plane demonstrator, along with ground testing of operationally representative sub-system concepts. The OFW program will evaluate missions and design challenges, mature critical enabling technologies, validate design methodologies and address technical issues that require flight demonstrations. The DARPA web page (www.darpa.mil) will host the solicitation and other program information on or about June 6, 2005. Prospective offerors are invited to obtain a copy of the solicitation and submit questions/comments through the email link provided at this web page. The DARPA Program Manager is Tom Beutner, ph. 571-218-4833; email tbeutner@darpa.mil.
