The US Army has made upgrading its command and control capabilities a priority, but has shared relatively few details about how exactly they’re pursuing the sprawling project.
But last week at the service’s biannual Technical Exchange Meeting, service officials dove deeper into plans for the next-generation C2 (NGC2) program, revealing among other details a tiered “technology stack” the capability will be built on, and how industry can make it a reality.
“We’re really, no kidding, trying to do this different[ly] than we’ve ever done it before without falling into some of the traps,” Mark Kitz, program executive officer of the Command, Control Communications-Network portfolio, told Breaking Defense.
The plan can seem a bit complicated, as Army officials acknowledged, so they urged industry to keep an eye on the program’s ever-evolving characteristics of need (CON) document.
