Summary
Request for information (RFI) issued by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)’s Aerospace Projects Office (APO) titled "Reusable High Mach Gas Turbine Technologies." The RFI seeks information and understanding of component technologies that support the development of high Mach gas turbine (HMGT) engines for integration into Turbine Based Combined Cycle (TBCC) propulsion systems.
The document provides background information on DARPA's Aerospace Projects Office, its vision for reusable hypersonic aircraft, and the previous Advanced Full Range Engine (AFRE) program. It outlines DARPA's need for a better understanding of HMGT developments, including specific characteristics and technologies required, and requests information on engine architecture proposals, technology development, timelines, system limitations, and additional requirements for a future request for proposal (RFP). The RFI specifies submission requirements, including format, page limits, and contact information. It also includes disclaimers regarding the voluntary nature of responses and the non-binding nature of the RFI.
In summary, this RFI seeks detailed technical information from capable sources about proposed HMGT architectures, technology development activities, schedules for engine prototype demonstrations, potential system limitations, and additional requirements for a future RFP. It emphasizes the need for concise responses in specific formats and provides instructions for accessing classified appendices.
