Major T&E Investment

Abstract

This Program Element (PE) funds the development and acquisition of major developmental test instrumentation for the United States (U.S.) Army Test and Evaluation Command's (ATEC) test activities: White Sands Test Center (WSTC), New Mexico; Yuma Test Center (YTC), Arizona; Aberdeen Test Center (ATC), Maryland; Electronic Proving Ground (EPG), Arizona; Redstone Test Center (RTC), Alabama; and for the Reagan Test Site (RTS) at the U.S. Army Kwajalein Atoll (USAKA), which is managed by the Space and Missile Defense Command. This PE also funds development and acquisition of Operational Test Command's (OTC) major field instrumentation and, until Fiscal Year (FY) 2020, management of the Cyber Acquisition Blue Teams (CABT) certification standards. Requirements for instrumentation and cyber certifications are identified through a long range survey of project managers, Research Development and Engineering Centers (RDECs), and Battle Laboratories developing future weapon systems and the test programs that support these systems. Army testing facilities are also surveyed to determine major testing capability shortfalls.
