2nd Multi-Domain Task Force
The 2nd Multi-Domain Task Force is a US Army multi-domain operations unit that will integrate cyberspace, space, land, sea, and air operations into one fighting unit as part of the Transformation of the Army / Aimpoint 2035. The unit was activated in 2021 in Mainz-Kastel, Germany. The 2MDTF capabilities include aerostat unmanned sensors, High Altitude Balloon's, unmanned aerial surveillance drones and will have Tomahawks and hypersonic missiles in 2026.
The Army created MDTFs to respond to Congress' desire to have forces that can oppose near-peer adversaries in Europe and Asia and provide A2/AD "Anti-Access is any action, activity, or capability designed to prevent an advancing military force from entering an operational area." In 2025, the 2MDTF experimented with 3D printed drones in keeping with Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and Army Secretary Dan Driscoll's push for modernization of acquisition.
