USAxxx is used for unclassified as well as classified sats.  For instance, GPS
sats also have a USAxxx designation.  There are several kinds of USA sats. 
Dimensions are available for some of them. RAE tables list them. 
You may also find some info in the Joel Runes tables available on Mike McCants
site.
