Headquarters Supreme Allied Commander Transformation (HQ SACT) is issuing this Request for Information (RFI) in order to engage with industry and Academia on future Next Generation (NG) Wireless (other than SATCOM) Capabilities.
The intention is to evaluate what could be immediately available, the art-of-the-possible and state-of-the-art with respect to systems, products, services, technologies, and methodologies pertaining to NG Wireless. This will support NATO Governance decision making on Common Funded Capability Delivery.
If you would like to respond, your answers are expected on 14/05/2025 (09h am EST) by email.
May we ask you to inform the Directorate of Aviation and Defence if you intend to answer this RFI.

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
