ATIC

Located in Fort Campbell, the Applied Tactical Innovation Center (ATIC) is a centralized hub for Army warfighters and research partners to learn, innovate, build, and explore new ideas to solve tactical problems.

The ATIC plays a key role in Soldier innovation and problem-solving. Soldiers will now have access to various machines and technology, including 3D printers, laser cutters, sewing machines, entry-level artificial intelligence, technical training, and design support.

“The most significant innovations I’ve implemented in my industrial career were based on ideas that came from the factory floor, not from the offices and boardrooms. The Pathfinder program is about empowering the Soldier who best understands a given problem to develop a solution for the rest of the team.”

– Garth Ghearing, innovation engineer and instructor at the ATIC
