The U.S. Army Futures Command (AFC) leads a continuous effort to modernize and innovate to support future warfighters. AFC now oversees Combat Capability Development Command (CCDC) and has recently reorganized certain research offices, laboratories, and engineering centers. In response to this realignment, the Senate Armed Services Committee asked the National Academies’ Board on Army Research and Development (BOARD) to examine these research portfolio changes and assess their impact. The study committee will investigate and assess the Army's strategy behind the realignment, discuss the issues with stakeholders, and make recommendations to ensure the alignment meets with Army modernization priorities.
