ACFT Calculator: Convert a 6-Event Score to the 2026 AFT
Last updated: 4 September 2026
Key takeaways
- The Army Fitness Test replaced the Army Combat Fitness Test on 1 June 2025 under Army Directive 2025-06.
- The Standing Power Throw is gone. Maximum score moved from 600 to 500.
- Re-score the five remaining raw events on current AFT tables in the converter on this page. Do not subtract throw points from a 600 total.
- Record ACFT results taken before 31 May 2025 stayed valid for promotion through 30 September 2025.
Six-event card to five-event AFT score
Enter the raw results from a retired Army Combat Fitness Test card. The Standing Power Throw is recorded for the old card and scored as 0 AFT points. Deadlift, hand-release push-up, sprint-drag-carry, plank, and two-mile run are graded on current Army Fitness Test tables (maximum 500). This is not a 600 − throw shortcut.
3-Rep Max Deadlift
Pounds from the old card — scored on AFT tables
Standing Power Throw
Meters from the old card — not an AFT event after 31 May 2025
Hand-Release Push-Up
Repetitions in two minutes — scored on AFT tables
Sprint-Drag-Carry
Time from the old card — scored on AFT tables
Forearm Plank
Hold time from the old card — scored on AFT tables
Two-Mile Run
Time from the old card — scored on AFT tables
What this conversion still answers
An ACFT calculator still maps a retired six-event card onto today’s five-event Army Fitness Test. The official overview at army.mil/aft states the AFT becomes the test of record for all Soldiers on 1 June 2025, replacing the Army Combat Fitness Test. Use the converter above to re-score an old 600-point card. Use the live five-event engine for a 2026 record attempt.
Army.mil still lists ACFT scoring tables as valid until 31 May 2025 and AFT scoring tables as effective 1 June 2025. DA Form 705-TEST for the ACFT follows the same cut. DA Form 705-TEST for the AFT starts 1 June 2025. Print a current card on the DA Form 705 generator when you run a diagnostic under AFT rules.
Six events versus five after 1 June 2025
Army Directive 2025-06 replaces the ACFT on 1 June 2025. The Army will no longer conduct the ACFT after 31 May 2025. The Army news article on the 2025 test describes an 18-month data review before the change. The named difference on army.mil is removal of one event plus a sex-neutral combat standard for designated combat MOS.
| Dimension | ACFT (through 31 May 2025) | AFT (1 June 2025+) |
|---|---|---|
| Events | Six, including Standing Power Throw | Five: MDL, HRP, SDC, PLK, 2MR |
| Maximum total | 600 (100 × 6) | 500 (100 × 5) |
| Combat scoring | Physical Demand Category tiers on the ACFT | Sex-neutral 350 total, 60 per event, on designated combat specialties |
| General pass | ACFT policy then in force | 300 total, 60 per event, sex- and age-normed for combat-enabling specialties |
| Scorecard download on army.mil | DA Form 705-TEST ACFT through 31 May 2025 | DA Form 705-TEST AFT from 1 June 2025 |
Event execution for the five surviving movements lives on the five-event hub. The Standing Power Throw is not on that hub because it is not a record event after 31 May 2025.
Convert a 600-point card without fake arithmetic
Subtracting Standing Power Throw points from a 600 total does not produce a legal AFT score. AFT scoring tables took effect 1 June 2025. ACFT tables stopped the day before. Raw pounds, reps, and times still matter. The point row may have moved. The converter at the top of this page applies current tables to the five remaining events and holds SPT at 0.
- Keep the Standing Power Throw meters on the converter so the old card is complete. Those meters score 0 AFT points.
- Copy raw MDL, HRP, SDC, PLK, and 2MR results into the same form.
- Set age, gender, and MOS. Combat specialties lock the 350 standard automatically.
- Read 60-point floors and 300/350 totals on AFT standards after the five-event total appears. The homepage engine is the same tables without the throw field.
ATP 7-22.01 is the testing publication for how events are administered. The APD record is PUB_ID 1032672. This site’s engine applies those five-event scales. It is not a substitute for the official PDF.
Need sliders without the throw field?
The homepage engine is the same 2026 tables with a full HUD, tape-exemption sentinel, and DA Form 705 handoff. Use it when you are grading a five-event AFT, not an old six-event card.
Promotion, combat 350, and tape after the cutover
Directive 2025-06 paragraph 4i kept a record ACFT taken before 31 May 2025 valid for semi-centralized promotion until 30 September 2025. The AFT is used for promotion actions effective 1 October 2025. Read the PDF at ARN43586-ARMY_DIR_2025-06-000-WEB-1.pdf rather than a screenshot.
Combat-specialty Soldiers on the Regular Army / AGR population in that directive must meet the AFT combat standard beginning 1 January 2026. The Reserve Component population named there begins 1 June 2026. Army.mil states no administrative action regarding the AFT until 1 January 2026. Pass floors themselves are on AFT standards: 60 per event plus 300 general or 350 combat.
Body composition is a separate program. An Army.mil article described a 465-point AFT incentive under Army Directive 2025-17 (80 points per event, no alternate events). The Army Body Composition Program FAQ later states that 465 exemption was rescinded and that Soldiers must meet the waist-to-height-ratio screen regardless of fitness-test score. Confirm the live rule on the tape exemption hub and the ABCP FAQ PDF before you skip a tape. Do not import an ACFT-era 540 exemption onto an AFT card.
Convert SGT/SSG fitness points only after you have a legal five-event AFT total. That conversion lives on the promotion points chart.
APFT is not the ACFT
The Army Physical Fitness Test (push-up, sit-up, two-mile) is a different retired battery. This URL converts Army Combat Fitness Test cards. There is no APFT engine on this site. Soldiers searching “APFT calculator” still land here because the six-event test sat between the APFT and the AFT.
Print today’s five-event card from the DA Form 705 page. Do not grade an APFT sit-up line on an AFT scorecard.
FAQ
What replaced the ACFT?
The Army Fitness Test replaced the Army Combat Fitness Test as the test of record on 1 June 2025. Army Directive 2025-06 states the Army will no longer conduct the ACFT after 31 May 2025. Remaining events are deadlift, hand-release push-up, sprint-drag-carry, plank, and two-mile run.
Does the Army still use the ACFT?
Not for new record tests. Directive 2025-06 keeps ACFT for-record results taken before 31 May 2025 valid under then-current policy. Promotion actions switch to the AFT on 1 October 2025. Any test administered on or after 1 June 2025 is an AFT.
How do you convert a 600-point ACFT to the AFT?
Do not subtract Standing Power Throw points from a 600 total and call that an AFT score. Discard the throw. Re-enter the five remaining raw results in the converter on this page, which grades those events on current AFT scoring tables. ACFT tables were valid only through 31 May 2025.
Are old ACFT scores still valid for promotion?
A record ACFT taken before 31 May 2025 stayed valid for semi-centralized promotion through 30 September 2025. Army Directive 2025-06 uses the AFT for promotion actions effective 1 October 2025. Confirm the live board with your S1.
Does the Combat Field Test replace the AFT?
No. The Combat Field Test is a separate seven-station timed assessment for designated combat specialties. Combat MOS Soldiers still take the five-event AFT. Track CFT splits on this site’s CFT page, not on this conversion URL.
Is the APFT the same as the ACFT?
No. The APFT was the older push-up, sit-up, and two-mile test. The ACFT was the six-event 600-point test that ended 31 May 2025. This page converts ACFT cards. It is not an APFT calculator.
