Actually, it's TARDEC (Tank Automotive Research Development and Engineering Center) that does all the RD&E. We're part of RDECOM, located at the same installation as TACOM. TACOM is one of our customers.

Here's tech. specific info:

If you are into RD&E part as much or more than the M part, then this is the place to be. We do some manufacturing alright, but not on a mass production basis, mostly one-of or a battalion-of special packages.
