The Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) Center is one of the eight science and technology domains within the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM).
Headquartered at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, the C5ISR Center features more than 1.4 million square feet of state-of-the-art laboratories, test beds, and integration facilities. These feature extended connectivity to national labs and other military research organizations across the country.
We support all six Army modernization priorities and all eight Army cross-functional teams (CFTs). We are continually supporting cross-functional teams and program executive offices in the Army’s modernization efforts.
Our role is to find solutions and deliver capabilities that span the entire domain of C5ISR networks and systems regardless of the platform.
We work closely with industry, academia, DoD, and other national research organizations to influence research investments and adopt, adapt, and mature new scientific breakthroughs.
