Description
SM-3 BLOCK IIA OBSOLESCENCE MITIGATION - ELECTRICALLY ERASABLE PROGRAMMABLE READ-ONLY MEMORY (EEPROM)
Score Rationale
This is a component-level obsolescence mitigation contract for EEPROM memory in an existing missile system (SM-3 Block IIA), with zero AI/ML relevance — the deliverable is a memory chip replacement, not an intelligent system. Problem framing is minimal: the stated issue is EEPROM obsolescence, but no operational context or success criteria are provided beyond keeping legacy hardware functional. Raytheon is a large legacy prime contractor, not an AI-native firm.
