ExPO in Review ExPO Spotlight #2: Resilient Expeditionary Agile Littoral Logistics Team’s Success Multiplies Last July—and most recently in November of 2020—NAVFAC EXWC, the U.S. Army Engineer, Research and Development Center (ERDC), U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), and the U.S. Transportation Command (TRANSCOM) successfully demonstrated a joint capability vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) technology. In simple terms, the Resilient Expeditionary Agile Littoral Logistics (REALL) Joint Capability Technology Demonstration (JCTD) demonstrated how a VTOL technology could refuel from a forward deployed barge. The Office of the Under Secretary of Defense Research and Engineering funds the JCTD Program. Its main mission is to address combatant command and joint warfighting gaps through prototyping and demonstrating innovative, game-changing technology.
