Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) Rotary and Mission Systems was awarded a prototype agreement to partner with the U.S. Army and serve as a Team Lead to develop a data-centric Next Generation Command and Control (NGC2) prototype.
Lockheed Martin will spearhead a collaborative effort with the U.S. Army, leveraging our C2 systems engineering and project management expertise to empower small businesses, non-traditional innovators and commercial technology providers including Raft, Hypergiant (an Accelint company) and others to scale their capabilities to NGC2.
NGC2 is an Army-wide, data-centric C2 transformation that enables commanders to make faster, and better decisions in the most dynamic and unpredictable environments. NGC2 will transform how the U.S. Army conducts digital mission command utilizing a data layer to provide a continuous common operating picture with a single, integrated view of the battlefield to enable swift and decisive action.
