Welcome to the U.S. Army Electronic Proving Ground

Our Mission:

The U.S. Army Electronic Proving Ground provides and oversees critical developmental testing in Electronic Warfare, C5ISR Experimentation, GPS, Antenna, Electromagnetic, Environmental, and TEMEPST domains in direct support of the Army Transformation & Training Command, Depart of War, and Industry Partners; ensuring the Warfighter is rapidly equipped, and integrated with modernization technologies to dominate every battlefield.

Who We Are

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) Activities and part of the core set of unique and critical DoW Test and Evaluation (T&E) infrastructure. We provide T&E capabilities in support of the DoW acquisition system, T2COM, Capability Program Executives, DoW partners and industry partners ensuring the Warfighter is rapidly equipped and integrated with modernization technologies.

What We Do

EPG is a test center of the U.S. Army Test and Evaluation Command (ATEC), headquartered at the Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD. Our mission is to plan, conduct, analyze and report the results of developmental tests in support of our Network, EW and C5ISR customers. In addition to conducting developmental tests, we support the Army operational test community by conducting operational tests, user tests, and experiments. Our C5I expertise allows us to support customers in the joint and training communities as well. We are experts in distributed systems of systems testing.

Where We’re Located

The Electronic Proving Ground is based out of Fort Huachuca, Arizona with a field office in Fort Hood, 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.
