- Description
- DARPA-SN-10-59 The Defense Sciences Office (DSO) of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is hosting a Proposers' Day Workshop that will provide critical information regarding the program vision, the program objectives, and opportunities associated with the development of an interdisciplinary proposal to respond to an anticipated Broad Agency Announcement (BAA). The vision of the SPS-MSCD Program is to develop and demonstrate materials and material systems that can be engineered to efficiently manipulate the threat energy spatially and temporally, thereby spreading, capturing, and converting early time threat energy to maximize the rate of energy degradation and counteract penetration or blast. This effort is the exploratory phase of a larger program to establish feasibility and lay the groundwork for subsequent development that may not be covered by the anticipated BAA. This anticipated solicitation will be specifically for innovative multidisciplinary research proposals to develop and demonstrate technologies that will: • change the way armor solutions are developed by taking a more fundamental approach to the response of materials subjected to high rate dynamic loading; and • enable the defeat of the suite of current and envisioned future ballistic (bullets, fragments and EFPs) and blast threats, with performance increases substantially better than Rolled Homogeneous Armor (RHA) steel and at lower weights. See Attached Special Notice DARPA-SN-10-59.
