Army S&T Approach• We are aligning our S&T investments and developing a
modernization plan that will create S&T insertion opportunities for Programs of Recordopportunities for Programs of Record
• We are investing our S&T where we must (i.e., Army‐specific areas), and leverage where we can ‐‐ from industry, other Services Federally Funded Research Development CentersServices, Federally Funded Research Development Centers, National Labs, academia, and international partners
• We will concentrate basic research on potentially high‐payoff science with a unique Army nexus looking at thepayoff science with a unique Army nexus looking at the world beyond 2030+
• We are looking to harness investments in technologies that d ti l d t i t t i b treduce operational and sustainment costs, increase combat
readiness, and increase reliability
Army S&T has a responsibility to lay the foundation for Army’s

Army S&T has a responsibility to lay the foundation for Army s technology needs that drive future capabilities
Army’s Modernization Challenges Greater force protection (Soldier, vehicle, base) to ensure survivability across
all operations Ease overburdened Soldiers in Small Units Ease overburdened Soldiers in Small Units Timely mission command & tactical intelligence to provide situation
awareness and communications in all environments Reduce logistic burden of storing, transporting, distributing and retrograde ofReduce logistic burden of storing, transporting, distributing and retrograde of
materials Create operational overmatch (enhanced lethality and accuracy) Achieve operational maneuverability in all environments and at high p y g
operational tempo Enable ability to operate in CBNRE environment Improve early detection of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Improve operational energy Improve individual & team training Reduce lifecycle cost of future Army capabilities

Army Counter Anti-Access/Area Denial
Strategic Priority:
• Enhance Army’s ability to conduct operations in contested environments (Anti‐Access/Area Denial) against a more capable (near peer) enemyagainst a more capable (near‐peer) enemy
O i ff tOngoing effort:
• Conducting analysis based on emerging threats and existing Army Programs of Record to identify outexisting Army Programs of Record to identify out‐year strengths and weaknesses to prioritize and focus S&T investments

focus S&T investments
Summary
• The Army will continue to have a large role consistent with DoD 21st Century Defense Guidance
• We will continue to have missions around the globe that require Soldiers to be equipped with the best technology to prevent, shape and win decisively
• The Army must conduct operations in Anti‐Access/Area Denial contested environments
Our job is to provide and maintain the leading edge in technology for the Army
