Dragonfly 2 is a component of the Defense Acquisition University (DAU) procurement training curriculum. This interactive module allows students to apply and test their understanding of the procurement process in a dynamic and engaging environment. Students are tasked with designing and building virtual vehicles while adhering to specified parameters such as cost and weight. These builds are then evaluated through scenario-based gameplay, allowing users to validate their designs against real-world objectives.

Game Overview

Dragonfly 2 teaches students to think strategically as contractors, balancing competing priorities to develop a vehicle that not only meets but exceeds government specifications and successfully completes qualification testing.

Students assume the role of a contractor competing for a military vehicle contract. They must design a vehicle that meets stringent requirements for cost, maintainability, and power consumption, then validate its performance through a government qualification test to secure contract funding.

The Cost, Maintainability and Power metrics are key factors in the vehicle’s ability to complete the mission and meet the government’s requirements. The final test is at the end of the course, each team will demonstrate how their vehicle can make it through each of the challenges in the test range.
