How to Use the AFT Calculator
Set Your Profile
Select your gender (Male or Female) and your age group from the dropdown. If you are in a combat MOS such as Infantry (11-series), Armor (19-series), Special Forces (18-series), Artillery (13-series), or Combat Engineers (12-series), toggle the Scoring Standard to Combat MOS. The Combat MOS setting uses sex-neutral scoring (male performance tables) and requires a 350-point total to pass instead of 300.
Enter Your Event Scores
Enter your result for each of the five events. For the Deadlift (MDL), enter the weight you lifted in pounds (or switch to kilograms). For Hand Release Push-Ups (HRP), enter your total repetition count. For the Sprint-Drag-Carry (SDC), Plank (PLK), and 2-Mile Run (2MR), enter your time using the separate minutes and seconds fields. If you are on medical profile and used an alternate aerobic event instead of the 2-mile run, select your alternate event type and enter your completion time.
Review Your Scores and Charts
Your AFT score updates automatically as you type. Review the total score hero, your performance tier (Distinguished, Commendable, Satisfactory, Pass, or Fail), and the event-by-event breakdown table. The horizontal bar chart compares all five event scores on a 0-to-100 scale with a line at the 60-point minimum. The donut chart shows your total score as a percentage of the 500-point maximum. Any event below 60 points is flagged in red and shows how many more pounds, reps, or seconds are needed to reach the passing threshold.
Use Additional Features
Click Save to History to store your result in browser memory and track progress over time. Use Print Scorecard to generate a printable score summary in DA Form 705 style. Toggle the MDL unit between lbs and kg if needed. Note your estimated promotion points and whether you qualify for the body fat tape test exemption (465+ points). The minimum required score for your age group and gender is shown below each event input as a quick reference.
Frequently Asked Questions
What replaced the ACFT and when did the Army Fitness Test (AFT) take effect?
The Army Fitness Test (AFT) replaced the six-event Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT) effective June 1, 2025. The primary change was removing the Standing Power Throw (SPT) event, reducing the test from six events to five and the maximum possible score from 600 to 500 points. The remaining five events — MDL, HRP, SDC, PLK, and 2MR — were retained from the ACFT. The 60-points-per-event minimum and the General standard 300-point total also carried over. The Combat MOS standard of 350 points for sex-neutral scoring was newly clarified with an enforcement timeline: active-duty soldiers faced administrative action starting January 1, 2026, while Reserve and National Guard soldiers follow suit starting June 1, 2026.
What is the Combat MOS standard and which MOSs does it apply to?
The Combat MOS standard applies to soldiers in 21 designated combat specialties. These include Infantry (11-series), Combat Engineers (12-series), Field Artillery (13-series), Air Defense Artillery (14-series), Special Forces (18-series), Armor (19-series), Military Police (31-series), Psychological Operations (37-series), Civil Affairs (38-series), select Medical (68W combat medic), Rangers, Special Operations, and Airborne units, among others. Under this standard, both male and female soldiers are scored against the male performance tables — meaning gender does not affect event thresholds. The total passing score also rises to 350 points versus 300 for the General standard. Failure under the Combat MOS standard carries the same consequences as a General standard failure: two consecutive failures may trigger administrative separation.
How is each event scored and what does linear interpolation mean?
Each AFT event is scored from 0 to 100. Two anchor values define the scoring curve for each age group and gender: the minimum performance that earns exactly 60 points, and the maximum performance that earns exactly 100 points. Any performance between those anchors is scored using linear interpolation — the score scales proportionally between 60 and 100. For strength events like MDL and HRP, higher values produce higher scores. For time events like SDC and 2MR, faster times produce higher scores. For the Plank, longer holds produce higher scores. Performances above the 100-point maximum cap at 100. Performances below the 60-point minimum receive scores calculated proportionally below 60, down to 0, so soldiers can see exactly how far below passing they are.
Why is the Plank event the same standard for males and females?
The Plank is the only sex-neutral scored event on the AFT. The Army determined that the ability to maintain core stability and endurance in a forearm plank position does not differ meaningfully between males and females when compared to events like running or pushing, which are more heavily influenced by body mass and hormonal factors. As a result, all age groups use identical Plank scoring thresholds regardless of gender. The 60-point minimum ranges from 1:20 to 1:30 depending on age group, and the 100-point maximum ranges from 3:25 to 3:40. This sex-neutral standard was confirmed in the official AFT scoring tables effective June 2025 and applies to all soldiers including those under the Combat MOS standard.
What alternate aerobic events are available and how do they affect my score?
Soldiers on permanent or temporary medical profile who cannot perform the two-mile run may use one of four alternate aerobic events: a 2.5-Mile Walk (must complete in 37:30 or less), a 12-kilometer Bike (25:00 or less), a 1-kilometer Swim (25:00 or less), or a 5-kilometer Row (25:00 or less). Alternate events are scored on a strict pass/fail basis — completing within the time limit earns a passing result for the aerobic event slot, but no numeric points are awarded. This means your total score is calculated from only four events (maximum 400 points out of 400 scored) and you are not eligible for the Distinguished performance tier regardless of your other scores. The four other AFT events (MDL, HRP, SDC, PLK) are still scored normally with full points.
How does the body fat exemption and promotion points system work with AFT scores?
Soldiers who score 465 points or higher on the AFT are exempt from the Army body composition tape test standards for the duration of that assessment cycle. This means achieving a near-Distinguished score effectively removes the risk of failing body composition requirements regardless of body fat percentage. For promotion points, the Army awards physical fitness points based on AFT score tier following DA Pamphlet 600-25 guidelines. The approximate values are: 120 promotion points for Distinguished tier (475+), 80 points for Commendable tier (425-474), 40 points for Satisfactory tier (350-424), and 20 points for passing scores (300-349). Actual promotion point totals may vary by rank and MOS, so treat these as estimates and verify with your unit S1 for official guidance.
