Sky Warden™ ISR Strike Aircraft

Overview

Built on the rugged, reliable Air Tractor AT-802U platform, Sky Warden’s short takeoff and landing capability and small support footprint allow aircrews to co-locate with the disaggregated ground units they support.

Built for ISR Strike

  • Rugged and Reliable - The Air Tractor 802U is designed and built for austere operations
  • Effective and Flexible - Combat proven, multi-mission open systems architecture to “collapse the stack,” replacing multiple aircraft with a single aircraft
  • Persistence and Payload - 6-hour loiter at 200 nm combat radius; 6,000 lb. flexible combat load-out
  • Connected - Robust suite of radios and datalinks providing multiple means for line-of-sight (LOS) and beyond line-of-sight (BLOS) communications
  • Situational Awareness - Ability to host multiple EO/IR, ISR and other sensors
  • Affordable and Sustainable - Low production and operating costs, backed by an established global sustainment network
  • SOF Heritage - Mature system built on more than 1.3 million hours of ISR and Strike support and upgrades driven by mission operators
  • Production-Ready
  • L3Harris is converting its OA-1 Sky Warden aircraft into U.S. Special Operations Command’s OA-1K Skyraider II light attack platform
