It was great to spend time with Dr Peter Roberts on the latest episode of the Command and Control podcast. We covered everything from the challenges presented to industry with integrating the proliferation of data in the modern battlespace into a common operating picture to interoperability and what it takes to share that across alliances and legacy systems. It was a lot to unpack in 45 minutes but I think we managed it! Anyway, take a listen and let me know what you think: https://lnkd.in/eM35Yjk6 #defence #defense #sdefensepodcast #defencepodcast #SitaWare

Listen in to understand more on GCAP.
Team Tempest’s #FutureHorizons podcast returns with the latest episode focusing on the trilateral Global Combat Air Programme (GCAP). #GCAP is an ambitious partnership between the UK, Japan and Italy to deliver the next generation of combat air fighter jets. The programme builds on the substantial progress made in the UK by Team Tempest to research, evaluate and develop a host of next generation future air systems capabilities. In this latest issue, we spoke with senior leaders from across the #TeamTempestUK during #DSEI2023 to hear their thoughts about the importance of GCAP.

Course Director, Airpower Strategy and Operations, Department of Airpower at USAF Air Command and Staff College
This podcast episode will probably be of interest to those pursuing innovation and adaptation (he doesn't just talk about the IDF but also about tension between USMC and USN and the advantages of being "poor" for creative and quick approaches). I also found it fascinating how he argued for more disruptive technology to get an "adaptation" break in the adaptation-counter-adaptation cycle. I'd like to see that idea more fully fleshed out before I'm convinced but I found it intriguing all the same

What if i told you your non- stick (teflon )sauce pan was discovered by accident !?🙂 What if i told you, the invention of the rubber car tires we know today might have never been invented, if not for the accidental discovery of vulcanized rubber !? And that if not for Percy Spencer, an engineer who one day upon working for Raytheon Corporation, noticed that a candy bar in his pocket had melted while he was working on a radar-related project, we might never have discovered the #microwave. He realized that the microwaves from the radar equipment had caused the candy bar to melt, leading to the development of the first microwave oven. Though #funfact still remains that some of the groundbreaking innovations we see today were either discovered by accident or totally unsafe lab practices, there is no way we’d be at this level of technological advancement if scientific discovery was left to sheer luck 😂 The #iphone, #car, #samsung devices you you use were all made from the discovery of a particular type of material . The discipline that deals with the transformation of these materials into our day to day products or applications is the cutting edge field of #materialscienceandengineering. The post below is the link to a podcast that explains such an example of a product manufactured through discovery of materials engineering. Also check out my earlier post for more info: https://lnkd.in/dZ5StyAW
Leave it to the US Military to find a way to build a spy plane with a radar cross-section 10x smaller than a bird! The secret? That would be partly due to their choice of materials, of course. Learn all about it in today's episode of Materialism Podcast https://lnkd.in/dfbS6VDy #podcast #radar #materials #materialsscience #aerospace

What state is industry really in since the DSR? How can we get to work strengthening it? In this podcast I discuss the state of play in Defence Industry since the Defence Strategic Review. Now that the National Defence Strategy has been released, I think its important to have a realistic view of where we are starting from. Launching the Australian Digital Defence Industry Matrix (ADDIM) is BenchOn's way of helping industry get back on its feet and achieve the monumental feats that the government is asking of us. It's the first milestone in BenchOn's Defence Industry Vision 2030. I have put the link to the podcast in the comments below. I hope you enjoy the podcast and please let me know your thoughts on the discussion! #defence #defenceindustry #defencestrategicreview #sourcing #supplychain #workforce #innovation #veteranowned #datainsights Michael Fairweather & Associates Liam Garman

Ideas and engagement are now important catalysts to move ahead.
🎙️ New Podcast Episode Alert! Join us as we dive into the pressing issue facing the South African National Defence Force (SANDF). With an estimated R60bn needed to restore basic competency, the challenges are significant. Our CEO Sandile Ndlovu, shares his insights on potential solutions: "We understand that the money is just not there for the state to give, that is why we are calling on the state to allow private funding to come and assist in resolving this problem." Tune in to learn more about the proposed paths forward and what this means for the future of SANDF. https://lnkd.in/dfN8_S_c #Podcast #SANDF #DefenceFunding #PublicPrivatePartnerships #SouthAfrica #Aerospace #Maritime #DefenceIndustries

Experienced Investment and Startup Strategist | Driving Corporate Innovation and Growth | Connecting with Entrepreneurs to Solve Global Challenges |
There is so much recent activity around the DSR and recent reviews and government releases. The focus is almost exclusively on the recapitalisation of the ADF and - from my point of view - the rapid innovation and cultural changes needed to meet the ever-changing threat environment. However, as a 'whole of nation' effort, industry support and the issues around people skills, experience and availability are actually pre-requisites for us to meet those needs. It is people that innovate, operate weapons, fight surface and sub-surface vessels and make decisions. Thanks Tim Walmsley for continuing to bring these foundational issues to the fore: great podcast and discussion. It is essential food for thought for everyone - especially those too focussed on the 'candy of capital equipment'.
