Reston, Virginia, October 12, 2026 / PRNewswire / -- Leidos (NYSE : LDOS) indicates that the company continues to help the U.S. Army identify and resolve technical integration challenges more promptly by participating in Reveille Forge. Reveille Forge is the U.S. Army's new long-term integration and testing environment.
Why it's important:Reveille Forge was launched following the Operation Jailbreak exercise conducted by the U.S. Army earlier this year. Its purpose is to identify system interoperability challenges at an earlier stage of development, before the technology is put into the hands of frontline soldiers.
Expert Opinion:The Vice President of Defense Sensors, Leidos, and the representative of the Operation Jailbreak project, Leidos, stated: “Operation Jailbreak demonstrates how an open architecture can help transform integration from a barrier into an advantage. Today, Reveille Forge provides a long-term environment for the army and the industry to integrate earlier, conduct joint testing, and advance capability maturity more quickly.”
Overall situation:Reveille Forge aims to shift the Army's integration efforts from periodic activities to a continuous 'integrate first' environment, enabling the government, industry, and academia to test how various technologies work together at an earlier stage.
- This work also supports the Army's Modular Open Systems Methodology ( Modular Open Systems Approach ), which helps to connect sensors, weapons, and software from different suppliers through open interfaces, and can be adjusted as task requirements change.
Next step:Leidos plans to continue to promote an open architecture and enhance interoperability, and by continuously participating in Reveille Forge, help to mature integration capabilities in order to support future testing and operational use.
Operation Jailbreak:Leidos indicates that the company has recently completed Jailbreak Sprint 1.5 at the Reveille Forge of the Redstone Armory in Alabama. During this period, the U.S. Army and industry continued to integrate and strengthen the capabilities demonstrated during the first round of Operation Jailbreak sprint held in Fort Carson, Colorado, in June of this year.
During each round of Jailbreak to sprint, Leidos represents the company:
- Relevant capabilities were demonstrated in the approved testing environment.
- Verification of interoperability with the approved Army system has been completed.
- Tested tools focused on network security and information sharing.
- Cooperate with Army stakeholders to determine the priorities for future testing.
The systems participated in by Leidos include:
- Sprint 1.0 (Kasenburg): IFPC Inc, MXR, and ALPS
- Sprint 1.5 (Redstone Arsenal): ALPS
- IFPC Inc 2: A mobile ground weapon system capable of dealing with threats from drones and cruise missiles.
- ALPS: The Army's Long-Range Continuous Surveillance System utilizes passive 360-degree perception to detect aerial threats without revealing its own position.
- MXR: An anti-drone radar empowered by artificial intelligence, designed to detect, track, and identify small drone systems in high-clutter environments.
Leidos indicates that this work also supports NorthStar up to 2030. This is the company's growth strategy, which focuses on combining defense technology, mission expertise, and integration capabilities to address the complex challenges of customers.
