SkyRange
The SkyRange program is developing and integrating advanced sensors/capabilities and providing flight operations & maintenance for a fleet of manned/un-manned/optionally manned air-vehicle systems to support hypersonic capability development.
The SkyRange test architecture includes both MQ-9 Reapers and RQ-4 Global Hawks allowing for the capture of real-time telemetry, real-time multi-spectral full motion video, maritime range surveillance and clearing, and the collection of weather data to support real-time launch decision-making for high-speed system testing (HSST). This unique capability will increase overall National flight test capacity while greatly reducing associated cost associated with HSST.
