美国陆军宣布，它正在向多家国防技术公司授予初步合同，以开发其新型战场软件的应用程序。
The U.S. Army announced that it is awarding initial contracts to several defense technology companies to build applications for its new battlefield software.
该部门将向九家公司支付总计9360万美元的年度费用，用于开发其下一代指挥与控制（NGC2）软件的应用程序。
The service will pay a one-year total of $93.6 million, spread out across nine companies, to create applications for its Next Generation Command and Control, or NGC2, software.
“虽然陆军正在提供我们今天可以部署的能力，但我们也在为工业如何在未来通过互操作性和速度进行整合提供蓝图和参考点，”指挥与控制信息网络组合管理执行官Shane Taylor准将说。
“While the Army is providing capability we can deploy today, we’re also providing a blueprint and reference point for how industry can integrate in the future with interoperability and speed,” said Brig. Gen. Shane Taylor, portfolio management executive for the Command and Control Information Network.
NGC2将提供一个共享网络，供技术、武器、传感器、设备和应用程序在此运行，以提高战场上的决策速度。
The NGC2 will provide a shared network for technologies, weapons, sensors, devices and applications to operate within that will increase decision-making speed on the battlefield.
被选中的公司包括通用动力任务系统、空间情报联邦、沉浸智慧、LMI、Mente系统、斯蒂尔曼高级策略、Onebrief、Rune技术和AIR。
The chosen companies include General Dynamics Mission Systems, Air Space Intelligence Federal, Immersive Wisdom, LMI, Mente Systems, Stilman Advanced Strategies, Onebrief, Rune Technologies and AIR.
这些应用程序将托管在Anduril Industries、Palantir、Raft和Striveworks与陆军合作构建的通用数据基线（即软件基础）上。
The applications will be hosted on the common data baseline, or software foundation, that Anduril Industries, Palantir, Raft and Striveworks have built in collaboration with the Army.
陆军表示，NGC2系统结合这些公司为其构建的应用程序，将实现信息共享，从而在陆军的六个作战职能——指挥与控制、火力、情报、机动与机动、后勤和防护——之间简化任务完成。
The NGC2 system, in conjunction with the applications the companies build for it, will allow information sharing that streamlines mission completion across the Army’s six warfighting functions of command and control, fires, intelligence, movement and maneuver, sustainment and protection, the service said.
陆军目前正在向I军团交付NGC2软件的过程中，I军团负责指挥印太地区的服役人员。
The Army is currently in the process of delivering the NGC2 software to the I Corps, which commands service members in the Indo-Pacific.
此举将进一步测试NGC2软件托管相隔数千英里的技术和设备的能力，其中一些位于通信受限环境中。
The move will further test NGC2 software’s ability to host technologies and devices separated by thousands of miles, some in communication-contested environments.
陆军在过去一年里一直在将 NGC2 从实验阶段过渡到部署阶段，从原型开发发展到将软件交到第 4 步兵师和第 25 步兵师士兵手中。
The Army has spent the last year moving from the experimental phase to the fielding phase of NGC2, going from prototype development to placing software in the hands of soldiers at the 4th and 25th Infantry Divisions.
2026 年 7 月，陆军在位于加利福尼亚州的弗尔文堡举办了为期 10 天的活动，名为“项目汇聚-基石 6”，邀请了来自美军及盟军以及行业合作伙伴的 1 万名参与者，使用 90 项技术来测试 NGC2 的软件。
In July 2026, the Army hosted a 10-day event at Fort Irwin, California, entitled Project Convergence-Capstone 6, that asked 10,000 participants from U.S. and allied forces as well as industry partners using 90 technologies to test software for the NGC2.
该部队随后在 5 月于弗尔文堡又进行了一次联合军演，标志着 NGC2 原型阶段的结束，并表示新平台已准备好进行规模化扩展。
The service conducted a joint force exercise shortly after in May at Fort Irwin that marked the end of the NGC2 prototype phase and came away stating that the new platform was ready to be scaled up.
陆军于 9 月 30 日向 Anduril Industries 授予了一份价值 1.628 亿美元的合同，最高可达 18 亿美元，用于继续完善 NGC2 的通用数据基线，即软件基础。
The Army awarded Anduril Industries a $162.8 million contract on Sept. 30 worth up to 1.8 billion to continue refining the NGC2’s common data baseline, or software foundation.
