Founded at Battlefield High School in Haymarket, Virginia, the Battlefield Aeronautics and Avionics Program (BAAP) was established to bridge classroom STEM theory with real-world high-power aerospace engineering.
Our mission combines student-led rocket motor dynamics, custom 4-layer flight computer PCB design, and telemetry communications with educational community outreach to inspire future aerospace leaders.
