The Texas A&M University System’s George H. W. Bush Combat Development Complex (BCDC) at Texas A&M-RELLIS is the result of a partnership with the Army Futures Command. The BCDC will bring together academic researchers, the military and the private sector for collaboration, demonstrations and high-tech testing of various national security initiatives.
The complex will include:
- The Innovation Proving Ground – A challenging outdoor test site for autonomous aerial, ground and subterranean vehicles.
- The Research Integration Center – A innovation hub where researchers, students, industry, government and military can collaborate to create emerging technologies to modernize the Army.
- The Ballistic, Aero-optics, and Materials Range – Hypersonics and directed energy research will be conducted in this facility.
