General Dynamics Land Systems has announced several partnership agreements for advanced software solutions throughout its portfolio of combat capabilities. General Dynamics Land Systems is working alongside Applied Intuition, Palantir Technologies, General Dynamics Mission Systems, General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT) and Strategic Technology Consulting (STC) to ensure its products remain at the forefront of technology. “The outcome on the battlefield increasingly is decided by which side has more powerful software,” said Dave Paddock, president of General Dynamics Land Systems. “By partnering with these best-in-class innovators, we are cementing our position as a multidomain solutions provider for the U.S. Army and our global customers. We will continue to work with disruptors across all technologies to ensure the Soldiers and Marines who depend on our combat capabilities are prepared to dominate in the future operational environment.” “Our partners are operating at the leading edge, and that’s not just in the world of defense,” said Scott Hall, chief technology officer at General Dynamics Land Systems. “Working together, our companies create a dynamic ecosystem for innovation across digital engineering, modular open system architecture and beyond. Put simply, they give us – and our customers – the power to win.”
Our innovation extends beyond ground combat vehicles and cutting-edge software! Check out this show-stopping display in our booth at a recent trade show
We had fantastic engagements with customers and suppliers (and potential customers, suppliers and employees) at the AUSA Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C.! Modern Army command posts at echelon are too easily detected and too easily targeted on the modern, drone-saturated battlefield, so we came up with a concept for Mission Command on the Move (MCOTM). The MCOTM solution uses Human-Machine Integration to reduce detectable friendly signatures across several spectrums, including visual, thermal, acoustic and electromagnetic. It also eliminates the need for noisy generators, cumbersome tents, extra support vehicles and other logistics burdens that consume valuable resources and manpower. MCOTM will help keep Soldiers safe on the battlefield. At Land Systems, we are in Innovation Mode!

M-SHORAD Increment 1 has a new name! The U.S. Army announced that its Maneuver Short Range Air Defense capability will be called the Sgt Stout, in honor of Mitchell W. Stout, who was killed in action while shielding his fellow Soldiers from a grenade in Vietnam. He is the only Air Defender ever to earn the Medal of Honor. The Sgt Stout M-SHORAD system integrates air defense capabilities onto a Stryker A1 armored vehicle. It is designed to defeat uncrewed aerial systems and fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft. We’re proud to deliver the Sgt Stout!
The interns are arriving! Our 50-person intern class of 2024 is brimming with innovative ideas and creative energy, and we can't wait to see what they do this summer. Want to join us next time around? Check out internship opportunities on our website: https://www.gdls.com/careers/
Great message from our colleague Heather in this interview: "I continually ask questions, and usually the question is why? Why are we doing it that way? Is there a better way?"
Congratulations to our colleague Norma on being a Michigan Chronicle Women of Excellence 2024 Honoree!
Here's a great feature on our colleague, who explains how our customers depend on General Dynamics Land Systems to design, build, support and sustain each vehicle we deliver.
General Dynamics Land Systems announced today that it has successfully completed testing of its Advanced Reconnaissance Vehicle (ARV). General Dynamics Land Systems’ ARV capability is designed to serve as the Marine Corps’ “quarterback” on the mobile and multi-domain battlefield. It connects to an array of onboard and off-board sensors, plus uncrewed aerial systems (UAS) and, in the future, ground and water robotic systems. The General Dynamics Land Systems design ensures growth margins and modular open architecture to rapidly incorporate new technology as it develops. It also incorporates the company’s Next Generation Electronic Architecture, enabling artificial intelligence functionality and control of robotic systems. The Marine Corps-directed tests and demonstrations in 2023 included: Command, Control, Communications and Computer/Uncrewed Aerial Systems (C4/UAS); land and water mobility; and blast and kinetic tests, as well as cyber and electromagnetic interference (EMI) assessments. “The testing and demonstration activities last year helped us collect the data to ensure we can meet and exceed the Marine Corps’ requirements for ARV,” said Richard Trotter, ARV Program Director at General Dynamics Land Systems. “We are confident we can achieve key performance requirements and competitively position ourselves for the next phase of the program.”
