Delivering a sixth-generation fighter jet by 2035 is an ambitious goal which will require Team Tempest to utilise the full power of digitisation.
In this episode we explore the role that digitisation will play in developing a new fighter jet in half the time compared to previous generations of aircraft. We’ll assess cultural assumptions about the risks of new digital capabilities and discuss how these could unlock huge gains in performance.
Discussing this fascinating subject with host Zevi Watmough are:
- Future Combat Air System Chief Technologist for Mission Systems & Information,
UK Ministry of Defence, David - UK Director Digital and IT, Leonardo, Gareth
- Enterprise Enablement Director for Future Combat Air Systems, BAE Systems, Kate
