The mission of the Foreign Comparative Testing Program is to test items and technologies of US foreign allies and friends that have a high Technology Readiness Level (TRL) in order to satisfy valid defense requirements more quickly and economically. While the aim of the FCT Program is to improve the U.S. Armed Forces’ operational performance, this leveraging of foreign research and development has benefited the U.S. taxpayer. Additionally, the FCT Program has served as a catalyst for industry teaming arrangements, which have been productive for both U.S. and foreign industries in an increasingly competitive global market, helping to build a robust U.S. defense industrial base.
Within the FCT Program, foreign items are nominated by a sponsoring organization within the Department of Defense for testing in order to determine whether the items satisfy U.S. military requirements or address mission area shortcomings. The OSD Comparative Testing Office funds testing and evaluation; the Services fund all procurements that result from a successful test.
