NATO SEASPARROW Project Office (NSPO) Evolved SEASPARROW Missile New Variant Development – Industry Day

The NATO SEASPARROW Project Office (NSPO) / PEO IWS 12.0 and NavalX, the innovation organization for the U.S. Navy and Marine Corp and the Office of Naval Research (ONR), invite existing and potential industry partners to learn about the NATO SEASPARROW Consortium’s effort to design and develop a new missile variant to follow the ESSM Block 2 in Washington, DC on Tuesday, October 14th 2025.

The NSPO is a twelve-nation international consortium with a mission to provide a platform for international cooperation and innovation to manage the development, production, integration, and sustainment of effective, reliable, and affordable weapon systems to protect consortium and partner nation forces from current and future threats. More information on the NATO SEASPARROW Surface Missile System Project can be found at this link; https://www.natoseasparrow.org

The NSPO welcomes existing and new industry partners, without prejudice to companies with limited government contracting experience. Potential partners with strong technical competence in their particular field may be successful with a high willingness to learn and adapt digital engineering processes and respond constructively to the NATO SEASPARROW Consortium’s needs.

The Industry Day will consist of a morning session (0830 – 1130 EDT) and afternoon session (1300 – 1600 EDT). The morning session will begin with an overview of the NATO SEASPARROW Consortium and Project Office, current consortium products, and the future direction in comparison to current systems. The morning session will end with a CLASSIFIED briefing of the consortium’s requirements for a future missile system with the operational techniques and technical capabilities that may be needed to meet them. The afternoon session will focus on our acquisition approach, including timelines, a discussion of how we aim to leverage digital engineering, and methods for assessing technological candidates and industry partners.
