Description
SI2 Technologies, Inc. (SI2) proposes to provide a solution for the Weapons Pitch Day Focus Area: Sensing and Communications by demonstrating the feasibility of multi-modal sensor capability on Air Force (AF) weapons platforms leveraging SI2’s extensive experience developing and delivering ultra-wideband high TRL/MRL array apertures and our industry partner’s innovative portfolio of proven beamforming and front-end RF electronics solutions. SI2 will develop and demonstrate a multi-function RF seeker antenna system with provisions for accommodating other sensors – e.g. Electro-Optic (EO) / Infrared (IR) – to enable a multi-modal sensor system. In Phase I, SI2 will work with the AF and our industry partner to demonstrate the feasibility of providing a scalable, multi-function RF seeker capability with provisions for EO and/or IR sensors to provide a multi-modal sensor capability for Size, Weight and Power (SWaP) constrained munitions platforms. The SI2 team will perform high-fidelity modeling and simulation to demonstrate achievable performance. In Phase II, we will validate our design via fabrication and test of hardware demonstrators to achieve TRL 6 and provide the basis for technology insertion into a program of record (POR).
