Material Development Challenges• Extreme heat requiring Thermal

Protection System (TPS), shell made of advanced materials

• TPS materials tested in Arc Jet Heaters up to 180 atmospheres & 13,000 degR

• Arc jets achieve these extreme temperatures by flowing high pressure air over an electric arc and through a supersonic nozzleBottom Line: Designing test

facilities is just as challenging as designing hypersonic flight

vehicles

Game-Changing TechnologiesChallenges in Hypersonic T&E

• Hypersonic flight environment is difficult to replicate on the ground

• Hypersonic flows are difficult to accurately model

Scramjet Test at NASA Langley Arc Jet Heater

• Provides the ability to rapidly design, deploy and sanitize large scale, high fidelity test and training environments

– Extremely malicious threats can be unleashed on operationally, representative systems and networks to assess the impact on the network, networked weapon systems, the associated mission

• Significant technological advancements incorporated into integrated tool suite

– Highlighted by the significant level of automation – Ability to support up to four concurrent events, executed in completely

isolated testbeds, at different levels of classification• Automated sanitization capability

– Expunges all malicious code from every component used within the event and returns it to a pristine state ready for reuse

– Sanitizes not only storage but also servers (including non-volatile RAM) and network equipment

• Time saving– In many cases, what previously took weeks or months has been reduced to

hours or days – Allowing users the ability to rapidly plan, execute, and analyze their test or

training initiatives• NCR also provides SME

– Available, at the discretion of the user, to support the planning, execution and analysis of test and training events

• NCR is able to collaborate with other cyber ranges using secure networks

– When test events require special capabilities or additional scale

• In-cycle Process– Declared schedule for white paper submissions (deadline)– Requires an allocation of available funding– Priority over out-cycle white papers (must be processed first)

• Out-of-cycle Process– White papers submitted anytime after "in-cycle" deadline– Offerors "highly encouraged" to contact Executing Agent before submitting white

paper− Ensures interest− Can address whether a 'chance' exists for funding

• All BAAs include an “Other Test Technologies” topic to enable offerors to propose test technology developments that were not previously identified by the Government

All T&E/S&T BAAs are always open for new white papers

Payload Component – Safety of Flight# Task

1 Assist in developing the technical requirements for an A2A radar model that will be used in aircraft ground test to evaluate A2A radars against their performance specifications and against competitor A2A radars

2 Aid in development of the A2A radar model fundamentals using the Matrix Laboratory (MATLAB) technical computing language

3 Assist in development and analysis of data from the Collision Risk (CR) tool that, when combined with other technical data, will assess the UAS Target Level of Safety (TLS) in a given Airspace environment
