In the latest episode of Mission Critical, we’re taking a look at what “integration as a warfighting concept” means across three specific areas: platforms, domains, and manufacturing. Host Ryan Robertson speaks with leaders from HII and Chaos Motorsports to find out more about the work being done to make sure the integration of things like sensors, communications equipment, and electronic warfare capabilities grows to be both platform and domain-agnostic.
The same principles also apply in shipbuilding. Shipbuilders are integrating robotics, automation, and expanding supplier networks all in an effort to quickly scale production.
The conversation goes beyond just military capability–touching on workforce development, industrial resilience, and the economic systems needed to support national security objectives.
