The U.S. Army Electronic Proving Ground executes C5ISR/EW/APNT developmental testing in direct support of Army Futures Command, Program Executive Offices, DoD, and Industry partners to ensure our Warfighters are enabled to dominate the future battlefield.

The U.S. Army Electronic Proving Ground (EPG) re-opened Fort Huachuca in 1954 and is the oldest unit on post. We are one of seven Army Major Range Test and Facility Bases (MRTFBs) and part of the core set of unique and critical DoD Test and Evaluation (T&E) infrastructure. We provide T&E capabilities in support of the DoW acquisition system, Army Futures Command, Program Executive Offices, DoW partners and industry partners to ensure our Warfighters are equipped and enabled to dominate the future battlefield.

Our mission is to plan, conduct, analyze and report the results of developmental tests in support of our Network, EW and C4SIR customers. In addition to conducting developmental tests, we support the Army operational test community by conducting operational tests, user tests, and experiments. Our C4I expertise allows us to support customers in the joint and training communities as well. We are experts in distributed systems of systems testing.

The Electronic Proving Ground is based out of Fort Huachuca, Arizona with a field office in Fort Cavazos, TX. We are unique within the DoW because of our naturally quiet electromagnetic environment, unique specialized facilities, our close relationship with the Army training community, and our ability to use the expansive real estate of southern Arizona. Operations are possible on 70,000 acres at Ft. Huachuca, 23,000 acres on Wilcox Dry Lake, over 100,000 acres at Gila Bend, and with prior coordination, on approximately 62 million acres of federal and state-owned land.
