During the initial contract, Raytheon developed large-scale theatre scenarios to assess concepts of operations in a multidomain conflict.

In this follow-on effort, Raytheon will establish a continuous experimentation environment with RCADE to enable the US Army's concept developers and Battle Labs to inform strategic force design decisions.

"This contract demonstrates the US Army's confidence in our ability to quickly analyse options and adapt solutions to meet evolving needs," said Colin Whelan, president of Advanced Technology at Raytheon. "In partnership, we're helping to provide the operational perspective to optimise decisionmaking through data-driven modeling and simulation insights."

Raytheon's RCADE capabilities enable analysts from the Raytheon Advanced Technology team to work with the US Army team to ensure a continuous feedback loop between modeling and simulation and emerging real-world threats.
