Lesson plan
FCS Network
The FCS Network - (Future Combat Systems) Brigade Combat Team (BCT) Network consists of five layers that deliver data to forward-deployed Army units. When fully adopted by the Army over the next two decades, the FCS (BCT) Network will possess the adaptability and management functionality required to maintain pertinent services, while the assigned FCS Brigade Combat Team fights on a rapidly shifting battlespace. The FCS (BCT) network will also dispatch targeting and other coordinating data to Navy and Air Force components for total force integration in the battlespace.
