JAILBREAK Needs-Driven Acquisition for Near-term Operations (NANO) - Accelerated Capability Event (ACE) II
Summary
The U.S. Army is seeking industry proposals for integrated autonomous sensing and effector systems that combine modular payloads, navigation software, communications and open interfaces to enable rapid sensor‑to‑shooter data transfer at the tactical edge. The effort focuses on delivering prototype platforms of varying sizes (small, medium, large) with hot‑swappable sensors and effectors, interoperable command‑and‑control integration, and operation in contested environments.
