Industry Day: NGHCM

TTO will host an Industry Day on Sept. 22, 2026, at 8 a.m. ET in Arlington, Va., to brief potential proposers on the objectives of a future Next Generation Hypersonic Cruise Missile (NGHCM) program.

This event precedes the planned release of a Program Solicitation (PS).

The NGHCM program aims to design, build, and flight-test a fully integrated system demonstrator. This effort establishes the technical foundation for next-generation capabilities, delivering significant leaps in operational range, cruise speed, and altitude to address advanced threats in highly contested environments. DARPA emphasizes a Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) approach from project inception to establish a clear, realistic path toward affordable, high-rate production.

Advance registration is required to attend. Registration closes on Sept. 16, 2026.
