Applications in all four phases.
Observe - sensor input
Orient - coms
Decide - more coms
Act - electronic warfare
Communications use cases but also non communications use cases.
The specs of a set of formation flying BB1 FPGAs makes them FF-SAR FoPen AKA FOLPEN capable.

Things has molecules in them. They react to electromahnetic fields differently.
And you can add resolution/ signature by formation flying, by dual polarization and by large bandwidth.
AST does all of that. ✅✅✅👀

Hypothetically such arrays can collect very high res data of the world under their area of coverage. Intermittently and report by means of AI any changes.
Any new soldier, vehicle or mine down to 0.5 metee depth.
This would evaporate much of the fog of war.

This is one of many hypothetical non-coms Department of Defense use cases of sets of large phased arrays in BB1 frequenzy bands.
These use cases are worth Billions USD each in case of war.

@NathanBabb14 SWIR and Electro optical is good at identification. And SWIR is good at seeing through haze / clouds
But FOPEN radar sees through foliage and shallow soil.
And does detection and Recognition well.

@NathanBabb14 For a ”skynet” type ominpresent AI powered network of sensors you need to combine into a system of systems. Where some add recognition some identification some detection and do that in all parts of elektromagnetic spectra

@NathanBabb14 As the systems you allude to is well known the peer adversary hides its assets from those sensor under soil and under foliage.
An satellites based FOLPEN radar takes that possibility away from the enemy and make them subject of precision strikes wherever they hide.

@NathanBabb14 That does not negate the value of other types of earth obvservation, eo, systems.
On the contrary they are subject to network effects and adding systems w new capabilities to such system of systems increases their aggregate value.
