WE ARE SOLDIER-CENTRIC
DESIGN FOR THE SOLDIER
The U.S. Army Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) Center strives to make a positive impact for Soldiers. We serve a unique purpose of developing technologies the U.S. Army uses on platforms: from Soldier to ground vehicle, and from Air to Space. The C5ISR Center ensures our forces have the capability to see, sense, communicate, and move faster than our adversaries.

WE CONTRIBUTE TO THE MISSION
INTEGRATE FOR THE SOLDIER
Success in multidomain operations depends on developing an integrated set of capabilities that work together and enable decision-making at greater speeds than ever before. To ensure the Army is postured for success, the Center optimizes contributions to multidomain operations and the Army’s vision. We accomplish this by:

discovering and developing innovative technologies
that enable information dominance and tactical overmatch for joint forces.

CONDUCTing APPLIED RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
across a wide variety of capability areas that support all six Army continuous transformation priorities.

Being THE BIRTHPLACE OF NIGHT VISION CAPABILITIES
providing more than three decades of night-vision technology development.

Enabling NETWORKED COMMUNICATIONS
on the battlefield with work in tactical radios, satellite communications and mission-command capabilities
C5ISR CENTER NEWS ARCHIVE
Autonomous Breaching System will surpass legacy systems to enhance breaching operations
Amidst today’s modern battlefield, most people would only think of Soldiers swinging grappling hooks and probing the ground as historical accounts of mine-clearing techniques. Unfortunately, Soldiers still find themselves within an arm’s reach of deadly mine threats and calculated obstructions.
C5ISR Center researchers deliver improved night-vision tech for air crews
Army aircrews face challenging conditions to remain lethal and safe during night missions. To deliver solutions, the Army is leveraging researchers’ technical and operational expertise to maintain superior aviation performance.
Army accelerates adoption of advanced batteries through S&T integration
To ease physical, cognitive and logistical burdens on Soldiers, the Army is transitioning to a family of standard batteries — for systems ranging from night-vision goggles to radios, GPS devices, weapons and more — in an effort led by Army research and industry collaboration.
