Description
SHIP SELF-DEFENSE SYSTEM (SSDS) COMBAT SYSTEM ENGINEERING AGENT (CSEA).
Score Rationale
The award title uses 'Agent' but the description provides no evidence of AI/ML techniques, autonomous decision-making, or learning systems — 'agent' appears to be legacy terminology for a software component managing combat system functions. Problem framing is purely administrative (engineering a combat system) with no articulation of operational friction or capability gap. Lockheed Martin is a tier-1 defense prime, disqualifying it as AI-native; a $405M award to an incumbent on an existing platform (SSDS) signals legacy system sustainment and integration, not innovative AI procurement.
