Army Quantum Readiness Act

This bill would require the Secretary of the Army to set up an Army Quantum Readiness and Advanced Computing Initiative. The Initiative would identify Army uses for quantum computing, sensing, networking, and quantum-enabled artificial intelligence, assess needed infrastructure, review ways to move quantum technology from research into use, look for partnerships, build a workforce strategy, and run pilot projects. The Secretary could also set up demonstration activities, including tests of post-quantum cybersecurity. Within 270 days of the law taking effect, the Secretary would have to send a report to the congressional defense committees on readiness needs, recommended investments, and needed legal or acquisition authorities.
