The U.S. Army has awarded Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (TEES) a $96 million cost-no-fee contract to conduct research on hypersonic systems.
The research organization under the Texas A&M University System will also study networked autonomous vehicles as part of the five-year cost-no-fee contract, the Department of Defense said Thursday.
Army Contracting Command received one bid for the project through an online-based solicitation and estimates work to conclude by Sept. 28, 2026.
TEES is chartered by the State of Texas to advance innovations in education, technology and research that will help the industry and economic development of the region.
The institution collaborates with the Texas A&M University College of Engineering to integrate basic and applied research capabilities.
