1. ARMY DIRECTIVE 2025-06, ARMY FITNESS TEST, 17 APR 25. This directive establishes the Army Fitness Test (AFT) as the physical fitness test of record, updates Army policies related to the AFT, and prescribes effective dates for implementation. The AFT includes one fitness standard for all combat areas of concentration (AOCs) and military occupational specialties (MOSs) and increases fitness standards for all Soldiers. The AFT will improve readiness, enhance lethality, and reinforce the warrior ethos. Some key points from the AD follow. The full AD is available on S1NET at the following link, and on APD. https://actnow.army.mil/forums/html/topic?id=ec550d9c-27b8-47f2-96fb-657a809e4434
a. The AFT replaces the Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT) on 1 June 2025. The Army will no longer conduct the ACFT after 31 May 2025. Soldier ACFT for-record tests taken before 31 May 2025 remain valid in accordance with current Army policies. Army Directive 2022-05 (Army Combat Fitness Test), 23 March 2022 is rescinded effective 1 June 2025.
b. AFT Design. The AFT comprises five events: max dead lift, hand-release push-up, sprint/drag/carry, plank, and 2-mile run.
(1) The AFT combat standard is sex-neutral and age-normed. Soldiers serving in combat specialties must achieve a minimum of 60 points per event and an overall minimum score of 350. The AFT combat standard applies to Soldiers serving in these AOCs and MOSs: 11A, 11B, 11C, 11Z, 12A, 12B, 13A, 13F, 18A, 180A, 18B, 18C, 18D, 18E, 18F, 18Z, 19A, 19C, 19D, 19K, and 19Z.
(2) The AFT general standard is performance-normed by sex and age. Soldiers serving in all AOCs/MOSs not listed in paragraph 4b(1) of this directive must attain a score of at least 60 points per event.
c. Beginning 1 June 2025, all Soldiers requiring a record fitness test must pass the AFT general standard.
