TRADOC Losing Its Edge?

[Ken White]

It is charged with developing new technologies and techniques in rapid fashion but aimed specifically and narrowly at asymmetric current and possible future threats which TRADOC isn't addressing. It is also charged with identifying (not in competition with the Intel community or SOCOM) such threats. That specifically because the formal mechanism is rather slow and ponderous while being directed at all threats. The focus, the inability to conduct major studies and such are quite different.

AWG is supposed to be light and agile and is supposed to be to the Army what these guys LINK are to Lockheed Martin.

It could be. It could also become hidebound, overcautious and simply another arm of the bureaucracy. Too early to tell
