Q1. Could you start by giving us a brief overview of your professional background, particularly focusing on your expertise in the industry?
After retirement from the Hellenic Air Force (HAF), I have worked for 26 years in the defense industry as an Integrated Space Air and Missile Defense (ISAMD) and C5ISTAR Subject Matter Expert (SME), for a number of companies such as THALES Airborne Systems, THALES Raytheon Systems (TRS), in France and Germany. One of my job assignments was Instructor/Training Analyst/Operational Advisor in the context of NATO's Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) system.
Q2. Where is the largest 'Policy Execution Gap' you see today—where the military has a documented Mission Need Statement (MNS) but no contractor has yet provided a technically viable, field-proven solution?
In the field of applying Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning (AI/ML) technologies in military autonomous Uncrewed kinetic applications, where decision-making shall be verified by a certifiable deterministic system.
Q3. Given your expertise in L-16 and JREAP, is the technical barrier to entry for achieving 'Network Centric' interoperability getting higher or lower for new market entrants? Are legacy primes losing their grip on the 'Digital Backbone'?
L-16 and JREAP Network-Centric interoperability can be achieved as long as host…
