The U.S. Army is in the midst of a technological transformation that is transporting its culture from the industrial age into the digital era.
Every facet of the institution is being rebuilt in the belief that success in future conflicts will be determined by who controls information and can exploit it to maximum advantage.
At the center of this transformation is a high-speed, high-capacity network, without which the service’s future posture cannot function.
The network connects all of the force’s pieces—not just the infantry, aviation, artillery and armor, but the logisticians and intelligence organizations that support tactical operations.
