## Description

BASIC The Department of the Air Force (DAF) is exploring point-to-point space transportation capability for DOD logistics. Based on the advertised commercial capability and business objectives for point-to-point space transportation, the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) is currently assessing emerging commercial rocket capability under the DAF Rocket Cargo Vanguard program, and the potential to quickly transport DOD materiel to ports across the globe. To this end, the Rocket Experimentation for Global Agile Logistics (REGAL) program will explore the use of commercially-advertised rocket launch systems for rapid point-to-point (PTP) space transportation and agile global logistics. The goal is to field a capability that can deliver DoD cargo anywhere on the planet in less than one hour through service-type contracts similar to agreements DoD uses today with commercial airlines. Expected missions include emergency resupply to restore loss of mission capability, humanitarian relief, disaster relief, and ultimately routine and affordable transport of cargo to select DOD ports across the world. No funding will be invested in developing commercial rocket systems. Please refer to the Advanced Research Announcement (ARA) attachment for additional information. The ARA does not solicit proposals. Individual requirements known as “Call(s) for Proposals” will be issued against the ARA. Each Call for Proposals will contain the specific requirements and proposal submission dates. Unless otherwise stated in a specific Call, all other requirements are listed within the ARA. This initial announcement includes two (2) Calls for Proposals. Call 001 "Point-to-Point Capability and Operational Demonstrations" and Call 002 "Point-to-Point Rocket Demonstrations". Please refer to each respective attachment for additional information regarding specific requirements. Offerors should be alert for any ARA updates or future Call(s) for Proposals solicited as an amendment to this notice. This ARA shall remain open until 1 July 2027. AMENDMENT 01 The ARA is hereby amended to incorporate guidance regarding Air Force Research Laboratory Instruction (AFRLI) 61-113, Science and Technology Protection for the Air Force Research Laboratory. The guidance is applicable to the ARA and all Calls.
