Real-Time Virtual Injection and Bidirectional Test Interaction Capability

The 96th Test Systems Squadron (96 TSSQ) is issuing a Sources‑Sought RFI (FA2486‑RFI‑testlink) to gather industry input on technologies and architectures that enable a real‑time virtual injection capability with bidirectional, low‑latency interaction between simulated environments and live test assets at the Eglin Gulf Test and Training Range. Respondents must describe a deterministic, deterministic timing‑synchronized architecture that supports real‑time fusion of simulated and real telemetry, cross‑domain data handling, and closed‑loop interaction, and must demonstrate integration with existing range infrastructure. Proposals must meet a minimum Technical Readiness Level of 6, provide verifiable past performance (including latency, jitter, and synchronization metrics), and isolate and describe only the components of the System‑of‑Interest (SoI) relevant to the injection capability, placing all other content in an appendix. Responses are limited to a 10‑page core (Executive Summary 1 page; Technical Approach 5 pages; Requirements Traceability Matrix 2 pages; Risks & Assumptions 1 page; ROM Cost & Schedule 1 page) and up to 10 pages or 10 slides of optional attachments (e.g., timing analysis, data‑flow models, cross‑domain concepts, prototype demos). Submissions are electronic only to Mr. Anthony Aldrich (96TSSQ.RNXT.RNXTRFI US.AF.MIL) by 15 May 2026 16:00 EST. The RFI is for market research only; no contract award or cost reimbursement is implied, and all submissions become Government property.
