Stratospheric Capability Architecture Development (SCAD)
Abstract
SCAD supports the National Defense Strategy by delivering materiel solutions to the United States Army (USA) and United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) for acquisition and sustainment. SCAD develops, demonstrates, and assesses an unmanned aerial systems platform with stratospheric payloads that provide ground moving target indicator synthetic aperture radar, signals intelligence, and communications relay capabilities. In FY 2023, SCAD executed its military utility assessment and transitioned to the U.S. Army and USSOCOM.
