DPA26BZ05-DV018 is the largest award in DARPA's FY26 SBIR Release 5 — up to $3 million over 18 months, Direct-to-Phase-II only. It funds four subsystem tracks for an underwater 3D concrete printer that uses seafloor sediment and seawater with under 20 percent binder. Here is what the Trenton program already proved, why the track structure is really a supplier-qualification exercise, and who can clear the prior-feasibility bar in the four weeks that remain.
Read articleDARPA's FY26 SBIR/STTR Release 5 pre-released August 5, 2026, opens August 26, and closes September 23 — a four-week window. Five SBIR topics and one STTR topic span underwater 3D concrete printing, semantic ISR communications, species-agnostic cell culture, open-architecture AUVs, and algorithm-discovery tooling. Here is what each topic funds, why DARPA's new monthly cadence changes how small businesses should plan, and how to use the three-week pre-release to talk to topic authors before the clock starts.
