The United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) is conducting a Special Operations Forces (SOF) FM broadcast antenna performance enhancement study to meet the requirement for a commercial FM and military VHF transmission capability. The application for this study is the Long Range Broadcast System (LRBS), a developmental USSOCOM airborne Psychological Operations (PSYOP) radio broadcast pod designed to be carried by either manned or unmanned aircraft to medium altitudes.
To complete the study and consider programming initiatives, USSOCOM requires current industry sources and capabilities information to identify solutions to an airborne FM broadcast requirement for a commercial FM (87.5-108 MHz) broadcast antenna capability, assess technology and manufacturing readiness, and prepare budgetary planning estimates for possible programming initiatives.

Broadcasting from a ship or an aircraft is pirate radio if you are a private company or personality. If USA do it’s allways legal..;-))
