| Requirement | CAD Feature |
|---|---|
| Multi-day stratospheric endurance | High-AR wing (26.7), full-span solar array on upper surface |
| Passive sensing / low self-noise | Merged fuselage-sensor pod with flush-mount sensors, tractor props forward of wing |
| Upward-looking missile detection | SWIR InGaAs windows flush on pod top, looking UP against cold stratospheric background |
| Visual verification | EO glass dome on pod bottom, looking DOWN |
| 360 degree situational awareness | Omnidirectional camera dome (top-aft of pod) |
| Long-baseline TDOA infrasound | MEMS mic ports at wingtips + boom tails (max baseline) |
| Differential pressure / airspeed | Nose Pitot probe + fin-mounted pressure ports |
All dimensions in centimeters, angles in degrees. Edit and re-run to regenerate.
