Moving Toward #Defense as a Service The rapid pace of change on the modern battlefield demands a shift in how #military capabilities are developed, deployed, and adapted. Moving from a focus on acquiring static products to acquiring desired end states, embedding engineers on the #battlefield for real-time feedback, and positioning manufacturing capabilities closer to the frontlines can all enhance our ability to respond to evolving threats. https://lnkd.in/en97ut2S ⬇️ Our insights in the comments below ⬇️ #DoD #innovation #DefenseTech #MakeCapabilitiesNotProducts

#DisruptiveTech 🔴 Innovation in defense technology is a cornerstone of national security and military superiority. For Germany, a country with a complex historical and geopolitical backdrop, the impetus to innovate within its armed forces has never been more pressing. Today’s security environment, characterized by rapid technological advancements and asymmetric threats, necessitates a robust and agile approach to defense innovation. As the demands on German foreign and security policy rise amidst a Europe plagued by multiple crises, so too do the demands on the German Armed Forces. To enhance the Bundeswehr (German Federal Armed Forces)’s assertiveness and effectiveness as a deterrent, despite constraints such as personnel and equipment shortages, it must rapidly and extensively adopt new technologies. #defense #defence #innovation #militarytechnology #agile Campaign Catapult, Pravo Consulting

Are the Department of Defense's investments in acquiring new technology, as well as its formation of #innovation organizations, creating an overreliance on #technology to compete with, exploit, and defeat advanced adversarial capabilities? Secondly, does this advancement in adversarial capability necessitate a need to change battlefield tactics at each echelon and level of war - especially in cases where technology is not available? The argument is that the defense industry's development of new tech towards DOD requirements is growing rapidly. This is great. But, this emphasis may be creating an expectation that capabilities will be developed (or have been acquired, but not yet fielded) to solve or address critical capability gaps. Rather than identifying cheaper, faster, non-technical innovation methods to compete and counter, we collectively, look to fill gaps with new tech. To expand on this further, have tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs); field expectations; or standard operating procedures (SOPs) been developed, updated, or omitted based on this new profile of warfare? Unlike the last 20+ years, where our innovation and changes to tactics were reactive based on the innovation of a nonmodern enemy, we are now taking a proactive approach in developing tech to compete in the next fight. However, as we have seen in Eastern Europe and in China’s growing defense industrial base, technology and tactics together have taken many forms - some new and others not - meaning preparation in these various aspects of warfare, with balance, will be critical. This shift, from fighting a war against a nonmodern yet innovative enemy, to a modern, innovative, and well funded #military is paramount. In some cases there will need to be a change in tactics, but in others a recognition of doctrine based tactics that should not change. But more importantly, an understanding that the employment of technology as an enabler, not a replacement. REIN was built to fuse this intersection of tech and tactics. Our first objective is to build awareness - as well as an appreciation - for this non-technical innovation gap complimented with the technical. Our second objective is to use talent from across the US and International defense communities to assess and educate warfighters on changes in tactics, the latest advances in warfare, and how tech is currently being employed on the battlefield. Our third objective is to firmly expand our mission across both US and international defense communities.
