The Air Force Research Lab Sensors Directorate, Spectrum Warfare Division (AFRL/RYW), has issued an Advanced Research Announcement (ARA) to develop methodologies, tools, techniques, and capabilities to identify cyber susceptibilities and mitigate vulnerabilities in avionics systems. The effort, known as Trusted and Elastic Military Platforms and Electronic Warfare (EW) System Technologies (TEMPEST), will focus on cyber hardening and improving the cyber resilience of Air Force manned, unmanned, autonomous, and remotely piloted vehicles, on-board Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) systems, Electronic Warfare (EW) systems, munitions, and any equipment, component, or subsystem that could compromise mission assurance of the Air Force weapon system or tactical platform. AFRL will issues specific solicitations under this research topic in the near future.
