The Air Force Research Laboratory is hoping that a new, five-year contract with a $499 million ceiling will help the service mature and field "affordable, revolutionary capabilities" to a range of legacy and future platforms, including a next-generation fighter or tanker. Since early August, the service has awarded contracts to six companies as part of the Aerospace Systems Air Platform Technology Research (ASAPTR) effort: Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Northrop Grumman, General Atomics, Aurora Flight Sciences and Textron.
