In plain English
The U.S. Army is seeking white papers from industry on developing a Technology Readiness Level 7 prototype for a Distributed Aperture Resilient Terminal System (DARTS). The system would use multiple smaller commercial SATCOM antennas to provide resilient X-band and Military Ka-band communications, with digital signal processing, control and monitoring, and lower deployment and maintenance costs. Responses should include the proposed architecture, component readiness, technical tradeoffs, bill of materials, installation and maintenance estimates, and a rough prototype cost; submissions are due by 5:00 p.m. EST on September 30, 2026.
