Description
Mission — All Domain Convergence Advanced Technology
The Program Element (PE) develops, matures, and demonstrates as part of a campaign of learning, technologies in an operational environment, learning from early failure and re-scope research to improve speed of response, scalability, interoperability and range of engagement. This PE will deliver technologies that will enable sensor to shooter applications, from tactical to strategic level, taking a system design approach in support of Army experimentation events and Department of Defense (DoD) Combined Joint All-Domain Command and Control (CJADC2). The research will enable optimal lethal and non-lethal effects across all domains using artificial intelligence and machine learning to improve how we recognize threats, augment and enhance leader decision-making, and replicate tactical behaviors to enable autonomous capabilities. Work in this PE complements PE 0603465A (Future Vertical Lift Advanced Technology), PE 0603462A (Next Generation Combat Vehicle Advanced Technology), and PE 0603463 (Network C3I Advanced Technology). The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering Priority focus areas. The FY 2026 request was reduced by $0.039 million for civilian personnel to optimize the workforce in compliance with Executive Order 14210, "Implementing the President's Department of Government Efficiency Workforce Optimization Initiative."
Mission — Collaborative Convergence Adv Tech Development

This is accomplished using adaptive data fusion and task allocation algorithm to support the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) decision support agents. This Project includes development of advanced methods for processing and information extraction for mission oriented tasks in support of tactical decision makers. Additionally, this Project will develop the scalable architecture solutions necessary to facilitate tactical data collection, movement, processing, storage and modeling and simulation necessary to enable mission command in multi-domain operations. Also, the Project will shape early programs to accelerate technologies and achieve sensor to shooter dominance. Work in this Project complements Program Element (PE) 0602181A (All Domain Convergence Applied Research). The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army modernization strategy. Work in this Project is performed by the Analysis Center, Command, Control, Computers, Communications, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) Center, Ground Vehicle Systems Center (GVSC), and Aviation & Missile Center (AvMC).
Mission — Convergence Battlefield Integration
This Project integrates and demonstrates aided target detection and recognition, autonomous tactical behaviors, Artificial Intelligence (AI)-enabled decision support agent, and data management technologies in Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) field experiments. This Project integrates these technologies on tactical ground, air, air and missile defense, fires, network platforms and other missions to demonstrate reduced sensor to shooter timelines and evaluate operational performance in representative MDO scenarios during annual field experiments. Work in this Project complements Program Element (PE) 0602181A (All Domain Convergence Applied Research). The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy.
Mission — All Domain Convergence Engineering & Architectures
This Project enables critical engineering and architecture support to all Army modernization priorities as the Army pursues convergence. Full development of mature system and system of systems level architectures ensure objective and data-driven analyses can be performed on new Army technologies and modernization efforts. Development of digital engineering products for new Army technologies currently under development enable digital analyses and assessments to be performed rapidly and repeatedly prior to full scale field tests like Project Convergence. The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy.
