Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
The purpose of this experiment is to test the performance of an ultra-wideband radar system when operated on board the Vanilla Unmanned VA001 aircraft (https://vanillaunmanned.com/). The radar system will transmit a waveform in the S and C bands, with its antennas looking towards the nadir direction. This work is funded through a grant from NASA to study sea ice in the Artic.

Purpose of Operation
Please explain the purpose of operation:  These flights will be a test flight to ascertain if the complete system is working prior to a full deployment in Alaska in March 2021.
