Scarlet Dragon 26-3 is an XVIII Airborne Corps experimentation event at Fort Bragg, N.C., September 2026, that brings Soldiers and industry partners together to test and integrate emerging unmanned aircraft systems, counter-unmanned aircraft systems, autonomous technologies, sensors and command-and-control capabilities. The exercise places new and existing Army systems in realistic field conditions to evaluate detection, tracking, sensor-to-shooter integration and operational workflows against complex and massed aerial threats.
