Israel's Ministry of Defense's (MoD's) Directorate of Defense Research and Development (DDR&D) and Elbit Systems announced on 10 May a new programme to improve infantry lethality and survivability called Edge of Tomorrow.

Led by Elbit's C4I and Cyber Systems Division and the DDR&D, the programme is designed to boost “stamina, cognitive load, enemy exposure, performance analysis and simulation, command-and-control, and more among combat soldiers in the IDF's [Israel Defense Forces'] dismounted corps”, the statement said.

The programme will be based on Elbit's Torch-X-based battle management applications for teams and platoons. Technologies will be plugged into the open network, such as augmented-reality goggles, computerised assault rifles, digital head-mounted displays, tactile sleeves for navigation and command transmittance, and other technologies.
