KBR announced it has been awarded an estimated $88M task order contract under the Department of Defense Information Analysis Center's (DoD IAC) multiple-award contract (MAC) vehicle. These DoD IAC MAC task orders are awarded by the U.S. Air Force's 774 Enterprise Sourcing Squadron to develop and create new knowledge for the enhancement of the Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) repository and the research and development and science and technology community. The work, primarily located at Naval Air Station Patuxent River, will take place over a period of five years.

Under the terms of the contract, KBR will promote rapid prototyping of new technologies into unmanned aviation platforms and systems, demonstrating these new technologies in representative and realistic environments, and integrating new technologies into existing platforms. KBR will mature designs into producible and sustainable products.

Over the past 15 years, KBR has maintained a presence in every fielded and developmental unmanned system at all four UAS program offices. The team has supported multiple platforms including Expeditionary Tactical UAS (ExTUAS), MQ-4C Triton, MQ-9A Reaper and MQ‑25A Stingray.
