The US Army Short Range Reconnaissance (SRR) program develops rucksack-portable, vertical take-off and landing small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS) to provide platoons and smaller units with rapidly deployable intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities, enhancing situational awareness, threat detection, and soldier survivability on the modern battlefield. The program is in procurement and production phase, with the first tranche (Skydio RQ-28A) fully fielded, tranche 2 production initiated using Teal Drones' Black Widow alongside Skydio, and ongoing contracts awarded. It holds strategic significance as the Army's first program of record for quadcopter drones, part of a multi-tier Rucksack Portable UAS family addressing shifts in battlefield tactics inspired by conflicts like Ukraine, enabling tactical ISR at scale without arming at this stage.
