Future Horizons is back with an all new cast and brand new artwork!
Just ahead of the Farnborough Air Show last year, the new UK Government launched its Strategic Defence Review shortly followed by its Defence Industrial Strategy, which aims to align national security with economy growth.
In this series, we focus on these strategies and the role that Team Tempest will play in their delivery, as part of the Global Combat Air Programme.
To help us to explore these themes, Business Development leads from our Team Tempest industrial partners will join us throughout this series, along with guests from the military and industrial sectors.
In episode 1, we ask why the UK's approach to Future Combat Air System is of vital importance to our national security and how it is being designed to meets the challenges of the 21st century battlespace.
Joining Zevi Watmough for this episode are:
- Douglas Barry, Senior Fellow from Military Aerospace, International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) and co-author of the IISS paper: Tempest - Build, Bye or Goodbye
- John Stocker, BAE Systems, Business Development Director, FCAS
- Dave Morris, Leonardo, Head of Campaigns for Future Combat Air, GCAP
- John McCullough, MBDA, Sales and Business Development Executive, FCAS
- Mark Tivey, Rolls Royce, Business Development Director, Future Programmes, Combat Air
