 The Armys Modernization
Priorities

How does the AMRDEC Missile mission fit into the

Armys Modernization Priorities?
Army has established 6 Modernization Priorities for FY18 and beyond

1. Long-Range Precision Fires: Land based long range precision fires

2. Next-Generation Combat Vehicles. The Army is looking for a heavily
armed, super-mobile, optionally unmanned vehicle.
3. Future Vertical Lift: Helicopters and vertical lift aircraft of various sizes and
shapes. These, too, shall be manned, unmanned, and optionally-manned
as well as survivable.
4. A communication network that works amid heavy jamming and
electronic warfare.
5. Air and Missile Defense: Better defenses against aircraft, artillery,
missiles and drones.
6. Better soldier-worn sensors, body armor, and load-bearing exoskeletons,
as well as other tech for dismounted soldiers, under the category of
soldier lethality.

address the needs of the stakeholders. [Digital Engineering Ecosystem]

+ An extensible, configurable and component enterprise-level analytical framework that

seamlessly expedites the controlled interplay of authoritative technical data, software,
information, and knowledge in the enterprise data-information-knowledge systems, based on
the Digital System Model template, to inform decision makers throughout a system's life cycle
by providing the capability to access, integrate and transform disparate data into actionable
information. [Digital Thread]

From JDMTP Advanced Manufacturing Enterprise Subpanel:

+ Enable seamless interoperability of data and processes across organizational boundaries.

[Connect the Enterprise]

+ Drive a continuous flow of integrated design, analysis, and manufacturing information

throughout the product/system life cycle. [Build the Digital Thread]
