520    The Future Combat Systems (FCS) program was the largest 
       and most ambitious planned acquisition program in the 
       Army’s history. The FCS was intended to field not just a 
       system, but an entire brigade, a system of systems, with 
       novel technologies integrated by means of an advanced 
       wireless network. Moreover, the FCS-equipped brigade would
       operate with new doctrine that was being developed and 
       tested along with the materiel components of the unit. The
       FCS was central to Army modernization plans. In 2009, the 
       FCS program was cancelled, and some of its efforts 
       transitioned to follow-on programs. In 2010, the Army’s 
       Acquisition Executive asked RAND Arroyo Center to conduct 
       an after-action analysis of the FCS program in order to 
       leverage its successes and learn from its problems. This 
       report documents the program’s history and draws lessons 
       from multiple perspectives, including the conditions 
       leading up to the program, requirements generation and 
       development, program management and execution, and 
       technologies.
