The project, awarded through a sole-source SBIR Phase III acquisition, tasks the California firm with developing advanced optics capable of maintaining pilot visibility during high-intensity radiation events. Work is centered at the company’s Torrance campus, with a target completion date set for mid-2027. The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, specifically its Human Systems Division, oversees the contract under the designation FA8606-25-C-B007 P00003.
Funding for the initial phases includes $564,497 from fiscal years 2025 and 2026 research and development appropriations. While the contract covers both engineering development and low-rate initial production, the scope reflects broader congressional interest in modernizing defensive equipment for nuclear-capable environments. Intellisense Systems will leverage its existing ISO-certified manufacturing infrastructure to move from prototype development to final field-ready hardware.
