The service wants to use sensors to "see" across the larger distances expected for future battles. And deeper sensing makes more data to process and understand.
The Army is conducting a series of experiments to figure out the right mix to achieve information advantage for commanders.
The center provides an open, collaborative space for military technologists to think and work on hard problems free from typical government bureaucracy.
High on the list is the ability to affect targets over long distances.
The services plan to sunset their separate firing platforms to more tightly link their efforts in cyberspace under one, common tool.

The Defense Department needs industry to build resilient tools that can survive in contested environments. The service is considering other platforms and units to use the aerial electronic jamming pod. The Army recently awarded the company a contract to prototype the EW system aboard the new Infantry Squad Vehicle. The teams are learning the power of a new Information Warfare Center to combat adversaries below the threshold of armed conflict. The service believes it will need a series of systems to sense and conduct effects across large distances in future battles. Despite years of development, the Army is still working to field electronic warfare units and provide them equipment to use. The new leader of the Army's Network Cross-Functional Team has a unique understanding of soldiers' network needs in the Indo-Pacific and Middle East. Two vendors were named to the Next Generation Load Device-Medium after the Army delayed the contract to reassess its acquisition strategy. Officials shared some details from the highly anticipated, but classified implementation plan for the DoD's spectrum superiority strategy. While forecasting needs to industry, officials described improvements to the command's acquisition enterprise. The service sought to improve two technologies at this year's NetModX event focused on cyber defense of the network and integrity of soldier data. Future tactical network tools for Stryker brigades will connect soldiers inside vehicles to their dismounted teammates across the battlefield. The pilot will help the service learn about electronic warfare personnel and capability needs. Load More
