### Project BS5 — Intel Cyber Development

The INSCOM Rapid Capabilities Office (RCO) enables continuous and iterative upgrades to existing capability functions of multi-domain Signals Intelligence (SIGINT), Electromagnetic Warfare (EW), and Cyberspace capabilities, delivering payloads, implants, and exploits within 12 months or less with robust testing and evaluation. If INSCOM cannot deliver within the target window, INSCOM coordinates with Geographic and Functional Combatant Commands, ARCYBER and Program Manager Cyber and Space (PM C&S) to develop an effective capability solution. INSCOM G7 Capability Evaluation Center, on behalf of the Deputy Chief of Staff G-2 and the Commanding General of INSCOM, conducts comprehensive test and evaluation (T&E) for assigned systems while also managing and executing DoW-mandated standard T&E of Cyber Effects and Enabling Capabilities. If INSCOM cannot evaluate the functional and operational risks of capability employment, then the chances of mission success for employing organizations is significantly degraded.

| Activity (R-2A) | FY2025 | FY2026 | FY2027 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Intel Cyber Development | 9.8 | 13.1 | 13.7 |

> R-2A activities carry the prior, current and budget year only — no five-year plan. Coverage is partial, so count them, never total them.

## Mission & acquisition strategy

The INSCOM Rapid Capability Office (RCO) provides multi-domain Signals Intelligence (SIGINT), Electromagnetic Warfare (EW), and Cyberspace capabilities to gain an advantage over rapidly emerging and changing threats. These capabilities enable Army mission commanders to mitigate risk, achieve technological superiority, and ensure the Warfighter's success. These efforts directly support Army requirements and directed missions, aligned with the 2025 Army Transformation Initiative and the Secretary of War's guidance on modern software acquisition to maximize lethality (Memorandum, 6 March 2025).
