AFC Year in review 2022.
Army Futures Command executes six essential functions in pursuit of our purpose. The first is our running estimate of the Future Operational Environment, which is AFC’s persistent characterization of how potential adversaries and cross cutting global trends will create challenges and opportunities for the Army. Research, concepts, experimentation, and requirements are the four main things AFC does. They are informed by our look of the future and are inter-related and inter-dependent. Finally, and most importantly, AFC’s integration links all other essential functions together to ensure they inform each other, the entire Army, and Joint processes. Every essential function above will be underpinned by a strong analytical foundation

The Army Futures Command leads a continuous transformation of Army modernization in order to provide future warfighters with the concepts, capabilities and organizational structures they need to dominate a future battlefield. The establishment of Army Futures Command marks one of the most significant Army reorganization efforts since 1973, when the U.S. Army disestablished the Continental Army Command and Combat Development Command, and redistributed their functions between two new commands, U.S. Army Forces Command and U.S. Army Training & Doctrine Command. The U.S. continues to face evolving threats from multiple adversaries. To exert dominance on the high-tech and multi-domain battlefields of the future, we must remain perpetually ahead of the technological curve. The research and activities we are carrying out today at Army Futures Command are setting the stage for a more informed and agile tomorrow. Because Tomorrow Is Worth Protecting.
