Special Combat Aggressive Reactionary Systems (SCARS) is an American combat fighting system created by Jerry L. Peterson.

SCARS is based on sciences of psychology, physiology, physical movement as well as research on the nervous system. SCARS was developed by Peterson after serving two tours in the US Army 173rd Airborne Brigade during the Vietnam War. Currently, SCARS is taught through private seminars, larger scale contracts, online training and DVDs. It contains no defensive actions, as all checks against the enemy's kicks or punches are delivered as strikes to vulnerable nerves. The program is based upon the idea that every human body reacts in the same way to specific injuries, and the program puts together various strikes to specific nerves, bones, and organs in order to debilitate an aggressive individual. The goal is to produce an "autokinematic reaction", creating a spinal reflex that happens in all humans. For the first seven years the fighting system remained exclusively known to and practiced by US Special Forces. The program was taught via seminars, government contracts, and also the SCARS Institute of Combative Sciences, once known as "the most expensive school in the world".

In 1993, the company produced video programming to teach its techniques to the general public. Live seminars are also available to the public in which are taught reliable hand to hand, and hand to weapons combat techniques over the span of three days.

By March 1998, internal Naval Special Warfare Command documents confirmed that the time commitment for the 30 day course meant that no units of Naval Special Warfare Command had been trained in the SCARS system in over two years; on April 17, 1998, the SCARS course was cancelled by Naval Special Warfare Command. As of 2011, the Naval Special Warfare Command had implemented mixed martial arts inspired combat training.
