The 4th Multi-Domain Task Force (4MDTF) 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 8 October 2026 at Fort Carson, Colorado. The unit will eventually have four battalions including long-range fires battalion (High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems and hypersonic missiles), cyber warfare and signal intelligence battalion, an air defense battalion and a sustainment battalion.

The Army created MDTFs to respond to Congress' desire to have forces that can oppose near-peer adversaries in Europe and Asia and provide Anti-Access/Area Denial (A2/AD) "Anti-Access is any action, activity, or capability designed to prevent an advancing military force from entering an operational area."

The 4MDTF will focus on the Pacific Theater and will be a part of the 7th Infantry Division/Multi-Domain Command-Pacific. Its first commander is Col. Hugh W. A. Jones.
