The Army's putting move fast, fail fast, fix fast to the test with its new command and control system
Story by cpanella@businessinsider.com (Chris Panella) • 4h

The US Army is trying a new, quicker, more iterative approach to weapons and systems development.

Its new command and control platform, NGC2, is a prime example of the service's efforts.

Concerns remain about oversight in the development process.


Warfare is changing fast, and the US Army is scrambling to keep up. Its new approach to weapons development aims to move quickly, find flaws early, and fix them before they turn into tougher and far more expensive problems down the line.
 
To avoid getting bogged down by slow, bloated weapons programs, the US Army is trying to reinvent how it develops new tech and modernizes for future fights. The service is shooting for accelerated, cheaper, and more Silicon Valley-like operations, with an emphasis on trial and error.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
