Army/Joint Experimentation
Abstract
The Army Experimentation mission directly impacts the Army's current and future force. It enables integrated examinations with US Joint Forces Command (USJFCOM), Army Test and Evaluation Command (ATEC), Research, Development, and Experimentation Command (RDECOM), Army battle laboratories, operational units, research labs, materiel developers, industry and academia to collaborate in the development, refinement, and assessment of future force concepts. The intended outcome of this integrative effort is to inform and validate concepts and inform capability developments for current and future force. This includes supporting the Army's Campaign of Learning by executing assigned experiments for Army Warfighting Challenges (enduring first order capabilities where combat developments has an unacceptable operational risk). In FY 2011 and FY 2012, Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) funding specifically enables the World Class Blue Force (subject matter experts overseeing and coordinating experiment efforts from the Army Capabilities Integration Center (ARCIC) in collaboration with the Schools and Centers), and support to Maneuver Brigade Experiments. Experimentation enables enhanced situational awareness, planning requirements, employment and management of accelerated decision cycles in a network-enabled force, and training requirements of new and emerging technologies.
