About this opportunity
Please contact the Carbon Crunch email for CUI Amendment 0002. The unclass version of Amendment 0002 has now been posted. Please note, amendment 0002 is only relevant to companies that have been selected to submit a written proposal. Carbon Crunch aims to enable scalable, fast, and agile production of hypersonic aeroshells. The program will focus on accelerating carbon-carbon (C-C) hypersonic aeroshell production by developing and applying cutting-edge composite manufacturing methods that are inherently faster and more scalable. Performers will be asked to demonstrate an end-to-end manufacturing process (from raw materials to near-net-shape densification) that demonstrates high quality, rapid production, and quick design-cycle turnaround. Once the process demonstrates reasonable cost and o...
