The Future Combat Systems (FCS) Brigade Combat Team (BCT) program is the cornerstone of the Army's modernization effort. The FCS(BCT) consists of a family of manned and unmanned systems, connected by a common network, that provides Soldiers and leaders with leading-edge technologies and capabilities they can use to dominate in asymmetric and conventional warfare and complex environments. MG Charles A. Cartwright, FCS(BCT) Program Manager (PM), recently took the time to provide an FCS(BCT) program update by responding to interview questions posed by Army AL&T Magazine staff.
