CFT Advanced Development & Prototyping

Abstract

This project funds pre-Materiel Solution Analysis Phase experimentation and technical demonstrations conducted by the eight Cross-Functional Teams (CFT) to inform and refine the development of Initial Capability Documents (ICD) to support Materiel Development Decision (MDD) in the areas of Long Range Precision Fires (LRPF), Next Generation Combat Vehicle (NGCV), Future Vertical Lift (FVL), Network Command, Control Communication, and Intelligence (NC3I), Assured Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (APNT), Air and Missile Defense (AMD), Soldier Lethality, and Synthetic Training Environment (STE). CFT advanced development and prototyping efforts will narrow an existing capability gap by informing capability document development and rapidly transition leader-approved capability requirements to the Army Acquisition System. This will allow for faster development of capabilities and ensure planned capabilities are technologically feasible, affordable, and available to the Soldier. This investment support the Chief of Staff of the Army (CSA) six modernization priorities
