US Army Removes Requirements for Over 400 Legacy Weapons

The US Army has accumulated over decades approximately 2.000 weapons and system requirement documents in the review process Removed over 400 outdated requirementsDeputy Chief of the General Staff of the Army Lieutenant General Karl Gingrich, this study to release service funds and clean up budget accounts announced that it was carried out for the purpose.

Army Clears Out Unnecessary Resources

Army, systems and equipment that have been identified in the past but are now obsolete by extracting from official requirement documents to prevent budget waste is working. Within the scope of this process Many old or obsolete technologies, from network systems to weapons removed from the list.

Requirements, US Army determining the skills he/she wants to acquire or plans to develop are critical documents.
However, some unnecessary or outdated requirements Billions of dollars continued to be spent.
New process of service, Army Requirements Control Council (AROC) makes it work in reverse of its traditional role: Instead of approving new systems, it removes obsolete ones.
This process was called CORA (Continuous Objectives Requirements Analysis) – which coincidentally is the word “AROC” spelled backwards.

The CORA Process: Directing Funds to New Needs

According to Lieutenant General Gingrich's statements, Army uses automated tools to analyze requirements. Like this by identifying systems that are still valid and those that are not can allocate sustainability funds elsewhere.

As new systems develop, requirements that are no longer valid Cleaned by CORA process.
This method prevents waste of funds and allows them to be transferred to new projects..

For example:
Next Generation Command and Control (Next-Gen C2) Within the scope of the program, the Army identified and removed requirements based on legacy command and control systems.
So, plans to transfer the budget allocated to these legacy systems to Next-Gen C2.

Gingrich said,In the future, we will ensure that no money goes to legacy systems and direct resources to next-generation systemsHe emphasized the importance of this change by saying,

Conclusion: US Military Shifts to More Effective Budget Management

Thanks to the CORA process US Army pulls resources from legacy systems to focus on modern requirements. In this way:
Preventing billions of dollars in budget waste.
No unnecessary expenses for old systems.
Investment in modern technologies such as next-generation command and control systems is increasing.

This move, It will accelerate the modernization process of the U.S. Army, enabling it to create a more effective and powerful structure for future military operations..
