Nice catch! That is a Northrop EW (Electronic Weapons) test platform, in a pattern above EC West (Electronic Combat Range West). I have seen its siblings, SCAN04 and SCAN05 in the ranges before, but not sure I have seen SCAN06 in the NTTR before.

Safe to assume they are testing some sort of electronic weapons system, possibly related to recent passive radar jamming research.
