public team self-submission roster
The publicly readable roster's 2026-08-04 SR-71 row is submitted under Lockheed Martin - Aeronautics Cyber Range (ACR). It calls the item a new Badge, says it is only winnable through an ACR CTF at the Aerospace Village booth and on Discord, describes the NFC TCG/card-collection raffle, and says code or firmware will be available after the con. It is a self-submission, not a DEF CON, Aerospace Village, or corporate authorization statement.
