PFC Ethan Loudermilk from the 82nd Airborne Division and the civilian personell discusses training with and learning Air-Launched Effects during Project Convergence 21 at Yuma Proving Ground, Arizona.
Project Convergence is the Army's campaign of learning designed to aggressively advance and integrate our Army's contributions, based on a continuous structured series of demonstrations and experiments throughout the year. It ensures that the Army is part of the joint fight and can rapidly and continuously integrate or converge effects across all domains: air, land, sea, space, and cyberspace; to overmatch our adversaries in competition and conflict.
Project Convergence ensures the Army has the right people with the right systems, properly enabled in the right places to support the joint fight.

The M1 Abrams is a third-generation tank that boasts several innovative features, including a multifuel turbine engine, composite armor, automated fire control system, as well as enhanced protection for its crew. The tank has been in service for over forty years.
The funding secured by Congressman Ryan will extend the service life of the tank and also integrate an unmanned turret. Additionally, it will help to develop the physical architecture and mechanical requirements needed to add an Autoloader and Automated Ammunition Handling System to the Abrams, evaluate current and emerging candidates for an Integrated Active Protection System, and develop new Abrams mobility and power architecture for conversion to a Hybrid Electric Drive propulsion and power generation system.

"Vilkha-M" is a modernization of the "Vilkha" MLRS, which was adopted into service by the Armed Forces in 2018, currently being serially produced. Modernization of the launch system is aimed at increasing the flight range and hit precision. Thus, upgraded 300 mm missiles hit ground targets at a distance of over 100 kilometers.
Tactical and technical characteristics of missiles, guidance systems and flight range were being checked during the tests. The work of MLRS and the results of the range practice on many parameters shall be evaluated by experts of the state committee. On the basis of the collected data, the commission will develop proposals to the Armed Forces of Ukraine to adopt this model in service.
