Summary
NAVAIR is issuing this RFI to conduct market research for a Tactical Resupply Unmanned Aircraft System (TRUAS) for the USMC, seeking potential sources capable of providing a small to medium-sized VTOL UAS solution for small unit logistics in Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations. Minimum capabilities include 100 lbs payload for 40 NM range, 100 knots speed, VTOL launch/recovery, autonomous cargo delivery with sense-and-avoid, and shipboard compatibility. NAVAIR is considering awarding an Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) for a prototype project in FY2026 through the Naval Air Systems Consortium (NASC).
