RFI: HAF/A5 Advanced Wargaming and Simulation Technologies for Integrated Force Design

The Department of the Air Force (HAF/A5) is issuing a Sources‑Sought RFI (FA7014‑AFDW‑PK, Solicitation FA70142611232025) to identify U.S. vendors capable of delivering an advanced, cloud‑native wargaming and simulation platform that enables “Decision Superiority” for integrated force design. Required capabilities include ultra‑fast simulation acceleration (targeting up to 10,000× real‑time) for rapid campaign optimization, a modular, multi‑domain integration hub that interoperates via APIs with existing government‑owned M&S tools such as AFSIM, NGTS, and JICM, and scalability to support hundreds of users and tens of thousands of entities across all classification levels (Unclassified to TS/SCI/SAP). The solution must incorporate AI/ML, specifically reinforcement‑learning agents for adaptive opposition and AI‑assisted course‑of‑action generation, and support both Human‑in‑the‑loop and Human‑on‑the‑loop adjudication with full audit logging, physics‑based validation, and seamless logistics and trade‑space analysis (including costing, risk, and TPFDD modeling). Vendors are to submit a capability brief (Word or PDF) no later than Friday 9 Jan 2026, 2:00 pm EST, addressing: (1) how the proposed technology resolves current shortcomings (disconnected tools, lack of speed/scale, limited realism); (2) examples or prototypes of AI/reinforcement‑learning for adaptive opposition or COA generation; (3) architecture for scalability, cloud‑native deployment, and integration with existing tools; and (4) required administrative data (point‑of‑contact, CAGE/UEI, small‑business status, contract vehicles, proprietary markings). Submissions exceeding 10 MB must be sent via DOD SAFE (or requested link); all briefings become Government property.
