Navy STTR N25B-T030 — Multi-functional Microwave Photonic Sensor for EW & SIGINT
U.S. Navy — Naval SBIR/STTR Program (25.B STTR BAA)
About this opportunity
A Navy STTR topic to develop a multi-functional, photonics-enabled microwave sensor (1–40 GHz) for modern electronic warfare and signals-intelligence receivers.
N25B-T030 is a deeper-tech Navy STTR topic seeking a microwave photonic sensor — an optical frequency comb seeding receiver (and future transmitter) heads for broadband, phase-sensitive spectrum exploitation supporting EW and SIGINT. It is run through the Naval SBIR/STTR program under the 25.B BAA; awards are non-dilutive STTR contracts. STTR rules require a U.S. small business teamed with a U.S. research institution, both majority-U.S., so a Ukrainian firm engages via that U.S. partner. This cycle is closed with awardees already selected; monitor dodsbirsttr.mil for reissue.
Eligibility
STTR requires a small U.S. business (>50% U.S.-owned) formally teamed with a U.S. research institution, with the two splitting the work. A Ukrainian firm participates via that U.S. small-business/research partner.
