The Department of the Air Force (DAF) is pursuing continued development of the next generation of tanker concepts that address the changing strategic environment. The DAF has established the Next Generation Air-refueling System (NGAS) project to advance those efforts. The project team is conducting preliminary analysis and concept development to meet the entrance criteria for an Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) which is currently projected to begin in October 2023. The team is seeking information on innovative industry solutions that might fulfill the most stressing and complex air refueling mission requirements of the future fight. 2. The scope of this solution set includes the following: Anticipated initial operational capability for NGAS is 2040. NGAS will be the third of three increments to the Air Force tanker recapitalization plan, following increment 1 (represented by the KC-46 program) and increment 2 (known as KC-Y or �bridge tanker�). NGAS shall be required to address employment in contested scenarios The DAF is interested in innovative solutions in all size and performance classes that might address the stressing mission requirements; airspeeds should be compatible with modern receivers. 3.
