MAGMA SPACE INC — Department of Defense STTR Phase II: STTR PHASE II PROPOSAL F2-17971 - MAGNETIC BEARING REACTION WHEELS FOR LOW-JITTER AND LONG

MAGMA SPACE INC — STTR Phase II award from Department of Defense.

Phase II STTR prototype / development signal

  • Phase II is where Department of Defense funds deeper R&D after feasibility. Incumbents with Phase II history are serious competitors on adjacent topics.
  • Use this award as past-performance context and to map customer organizations for STRATFI/TACFI-style transition planning.
  • At $1,794,889, this is a large obligation for typical SBIR Phase sizing — worth reviewing for scope breadth and teaming opportunity.
  • Tagged technology areas: Space & Satellite. Follow those hubs for open topics and peer winners in the same cluster.
