Drones: Industry & Defence: JIATF-401 adds ten Domestic Shield firmsBackground
SRC Inc. is a US not-for-profit defence research organisation based in Syracuse, New York. Its work spans radar, counter-drone systems, electronic warfare and intelligence analysis, placing it in the technical supply chain for military sensing and drone-defence programmes.
Syracuse University created the organisation in 1957 as Syracuse University Research Corporation. It became independent during the 1970s and adopted the SRC Inc. name in 2009. Its long institutional history distinguishes it from newer defence-technology suppliers.
The organisation’s relevance rests on specialist research and systems work rather than a single contract. On 29 September, it became one of ten firms added to Domestic Shield, a programme that lets US agencies compete orders among approved suppliers rather than guaranteeing sales.
