TALENT MANAGEMENT
HOW IS RCCTO UNIQUE, OR DIFFERENT FROM A PEO?
RCCTO is chartered to develop rapid experimental prototypes that provide residual combat capabilities. RCCTO’s unique charter allows rapid naviga- tion, or exemption from many of the traditional processes that govern a program of record. The RCCTO rapid prototyping mission enables adaptation to changing conditions and threats—we start and finish prototypes in five years or less. Additionally, RCCTO reports to and accepts assignments through its Army board of directors.
HON. RYAN D. MCCARTHY Secretary of the Army

Board of Directors
GEN. JAMES C. MCCONVILLE Chief of Staff of the Army

What are your recent wins?
In 2019, RCCTO accelerated the development of the Army’s ground-based offensive hyper- sonic weapon, including award of the first contracts to prototype the system and groundbreaking on a state-of-the-art production facility in Courtland, Alabama. This will lead to the fielding of the Long Range Hypersonic Weapon prototype, which will provide residual combat capability to Soldiers by fiscal year 2023.
5 LASER EVOLUTION
A 10-kilowatt (kW) laser integrated on a Stryker participates in the Maneuver Fires Integrated Experiment at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, in late October and early November. The Army is now accelerating the rapid prototyping and fielding of 50 kW-class lasers on a platoon of Strykers. (U.S. Army photo)
In 2019, RCCTO accelerated development of the Army’s first combat-capable laser weapon system, which will provide a 50 kilowatt-class laser on a Stryker platform, including award of a competitive contract to prototype the system. RCCTO will field four
of these prototype combat vehi- cles, known as Directed Energy – Maneuver Short Range Air Defense (DE-MSHORAD), to an operational unit no later than fiscal year 2022.
RCCTO held its second innova- tion day Feb. 11-12 in Austin, Texas, in partnership with Army Futures Command and the Army Applications Laboratory. These events, which resemble a commercial investor “pitch day,” are designed to acceler- ate the transition of emerging technology to Soldiers. The first innovation day, held in Septem- ber, resulted in 42 presentations, with nine innovative concepts approved for prototyping efforts with RCCTO.
