All 30k teams will be receiving ESRA Ballistic Entry Tracker payloads prior to launch.  This payload is a highly specialized (and very small) system for tracking incoming rockets which have failed to eject their parachutes and are returning in a ballistic, high speed trajectory. 

This system alerts us and allows us to predict potential danger zones for impact.    

30k solid COTS and SRAD teams should plan for including this payload into their projects.
