Description The U.S. Army Test and Evaluation Command (ATEC) invites its partners in private industry, academia, and other government agencies to leverage our premier, world-class Test and Evaluation (T&E) infrastructure. ATEC's national test ranges, which are national assets, are available for use by external organizations to support your internal Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E) activities. To support Army transformation, ATEC is streamlining access for industry partners to rapidly leverage these one-of-a-kind facilities and expertise, speeding capability maturation and delivery outside of traditional T&E programs and channels. This initiative provides a unique opportunity for our partners to access and leverage assets, capabilities, and environments that are not available anywhere else in the world, enabling comprehensive and realistic experimentation, research, and testing of your systems and technologies. Please see https://atec.army.mil/home/rfts/ for more information and inquiries. Available Premier Test Facilities ATEC offers a diverse set of environments across its portfolio of test centers. These test centers maintain core expertise in particular mission areas but offer an array of assets and capabilities as part of the Department of War Major Range and Test Facility Base for full-scope testing, experimentation, research, and development. They include: Aberdeen Test Center (ATC), Maryland: Located at Aberdeen Proving Ground, ATC is a premier center for direct-fire, survivability, and vulnerability testing. Its unique location experiences approximately 80% of the world's climates, offering an unmatched outdoor laboratory for comprehensive testing of combat vehicle performance, weapon systems, and soldier protection systems. Dugway Proving Ground (DPG), Utah: DPG is the nation's primary facility for testing and evaluating chemical and biological defense systems. Spanning nearly 800,000 acres, it offers state-of-the-art laboratories, large-scale test chambers, and extensive field test grids to ensure materiel will protect against chemical, biological, radiological, and explosive (CBRE) hazards. Beyond its traditional mission, DPG's expansive range space and unique facilities are ideal for supporting rapid, affordable industry experimentation in Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), Counter-UAS (C-UAS), and Launched Effects (LE), from component prototypes to full systems. Electronic Proving Ground (EPG), Fort Huachuca, Arizona: As ATEC's designated tester for command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems, EPG specializes in putting networks and emerging technologies to the test in operationally realistic environments. The Buffalo Soldier Electronic Test and Training Range offers 1.6 million acres for maneuver and 970 square miles of restricted air space for various RDT&E activities. Redstone Test Center (RTC), Alabama: Located at Redstone Arsenal, RTC takes a cu…
