Most warfighting functions used separate stove-piped systems, amounting to a total of 17 programs of record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George recognized getting command-and-control right was imperative to future battlefield success and decided to embark on a program to fix the service\u2019s C2 capabilities to avoid operational disruption while creating the necessary clean-sheet system from scratch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Roughly 18 months ago, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/unmanned\/2024\/03\/25\/the-robots-are-coming-us-army-experiments-with-human-machine-warfare\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\" title=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/unmanned\/2024\/03\/25\/the-robots-are-coming-us-army-experiments-with-human-machine-warfare\/\">at the National Training Center at Fort Irwin, California<\/a>, soldiers at the Army\u2019s experimentation event Project Convergence and industry partners, including Anduril, demonstrated a proof-of-concept at the unclassified level for what a Next-Generation C2 system, or NGC2, might look like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Army established the NGC2 program office in April 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNGC2 is not just a capability. It\u2019s a blueprint for how we\u2019ll deliver future Army systems,\u201d Gen. James Rainey, Army Futures Command commander, said in the service\u2019s statement. \u201cThis award reflects a fundamentally different relationship with industry, built on shared purpose, speed, and trust. By co-developing with our industry partners and putting soldiers at the center of design, we\u2019re delivering what they need \u2014 faster, more integrated, and ready for the fight.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anduril will, over the next 11 months, come together with other industry partners like Palantir, Striveworks, Govini, Instant Connect Enterprise (ICE), Research Innovations, Inc. (RII) and Microsoft, the company listed in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFor NGC2, Anduril and its partners will create an ecosystem that can rapidly integrate a range of technologies into a singular architecture so that soldiers can access various kinds of compute, communications and information processing capabilities all at once,\u201d the company describes. \u201cTime sensitive decisions will be faster and soldiers will be more connected across Corps to Company.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Army has often said the future battlefield\u2019s victor will be the one to harness the speed of decision-making and execute missions faster than the enemy. Anduril\u2019s Lattice Mesh intends to \u201cenable machine-to-machine interfaces that deliver effects in a fraction of the time compared to legacy systems and networks,\u201d the company states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.anduril.com\/lattice-mesh\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\" title=\"https:\/\/www.anduril.com\/lattice-mesh\/\">Lattice Mesh<\/a> is already in use across several joint and service initiatives to include the Defense Department\u2019s Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office Edge Data Mesh. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNGC2 will connect digital assets, remote sensors, command posts and soldiers on the ground with real-time intelligence and systems,\u201d Anduril states. \u201cThis solution is in stark contrast to the siloing of data and intelligence across classified and unclassified stovepiped systems that currently exists.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While Anduril leads the charge to develop NGC2, the Army will also continue to hold competitions for additional vendors and vendor teams and plans to award additional contracts later this fiscal year for prototyping with other units including the 25th Infantry Division and III Corps Headquarters, according to the service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe know that timely and integrated data will be critical to enable commanders\u2019 decision making in future warfare, and we need industry to bring their best in order to meet the speed of need for our warfighters,\u201d Brig. Gen. Shane Taylor, who leads the Army\u2019s Program Executive Office Command, Control, Communications and Network (PEO C3N), said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNGC2 is not a one-and-done contract, but a long-term effort of continuous contracting and investment in the technologies that will deliver needed overmatch for our force.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p
