Is the rise of advanced technology impacting the skills gap in the aerospace and defence industries?💭   Previously we have highlighted the skills gap in both the aerospace and defence sectors, now let's take a look at how advanced technology is impacting this. The aerospace and defence industries has long been at the forefront of technological advancements, with recent years seeing the rise of electric drivetrains and eVTOLs. 🚁   The use of advanced technologies is rising at a rapid rate and training is not keeping up with this. It is vital to have a workforce that understands these technologies but who are also proficient in their use. Take a look at my blog post below analysing the current skills gap.   How do you think we can shorten the current skills gap in the aerospace and defence sectors?   #Aerospace #Defence #AdvancedTechnologies

#AUSA2024 was more than just a conference; it was an immersion in the future of defense technology. Our team was energized by the innovative spirit and the dedication to creating solutions that empower those who serve. From exploring cutting-edge simulations to diving deep into human-autonomous vehicle integration, we gained invaluable insights into the evolving landscape of military technology. We were particularly excited to share our Human Factors expertise in: 1. Military Cognitive Load & Workflow Optimization: Understanding how to reduce cognitive burden and streamline tasks for military personnel in high-stress environments. 2. Human-Autonomous Military Vehicle Research & Integration: Exploring the Human Factors considerations of integrating autonomous vehicles into military operations. 3. Real-Time Military Decision Making & Data Optimization: Optimizing data visualization and decision-making tools to support rapid and effective responses in dynamic situations. We're eager to apply these insights to our Human Factors research and continue supporting innovation in the defense sector.

#DisruptiveTech 🔴 Three of four companies participating in the US Army’s Robotic Combat Vehicle (RCV) programme have delivered two prototypes respectively, according to updates from each over the last several weeks. The service requires platform prototypes as part of the first phase of the industrial competition, whereupon they are delivered to Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland. At the end of September 2023, the Army selected four teams to participate. The total combined base award value was approximately $25m. ⦿ Oshkosh Defense was the first to deliver its prototype in mid-August. ⦿ General Dynamics Land Systems (GDLS) delivered its entrant, the Tracked Robot 10-tonne (TRK) RCV, on 2 October. ⦿ Textron delivered its prototype, the RIPSAW M3, a day later. With collaborative support from Howe & Howe and Teledyne FLIR Defense ⦿ So far, the team led by McQ Inc., with support from BAE Systems and HDT Global, have yet to release details The Army intend to develop three RCV variants: Light, Medium, and Heavy. After the first prototype phase, the Army then plans to initiate a competition to “pick the best of breed” for eventual production. Phase II will comprise a base award of $119m and calls for down-selected contractors to deliver nine RCV Production Representative Prototypes in early 2026. According to a Congressional Research Service report on the RCV programme, updated in July 2024, the Army intends to field the first unit in FY2028 following a production decision scheduled for FY2027. #ROV #RCV #UGV #roboticcombatvehicle #uncrewedgroundvehicles #robotics Campaign Catapult Pravo Consulting
