Like almost all agencies, the US Navy does a good job of buying and replacing old technology. Where the DoN, and most others struggle is how to sustain that application or system over the long term. Jennifer Edgin, the assistant deputy chief of naval operations for information warfare, said her office is leading a perspective shift to ensure technology is onboarded quickly and is always modernized. #itmodernization #govcon https://bit.ly/3uSKXAN

Defense officials from the United States Department of Defense ????, #Norway ????, and the UK Ministry of Defence ???? recently concluded a conference with Naval Special Warfare in Virginia Beach, June 24-27, 2024. The constructive discussions focused on establishing common standards for Arctic-capable forces, optimizing intelligence-sharing practices, and facilitating persistent training and engagements. The three countries noted the need to enhance readiness and effectiveness in addressing evolving operational challenges in the #Arctic and High North. Commander of Naval Special Warfare Command - Navy SEAL & SWCC Teams, Rear Adm. Keith Davids, said “These important partnerships enhance the security cooperation between the United States, the United Kingdom, and Norway and are crucial for addressing common security threats. These strategic partnerships strengthen our collective defense, enhance stability, and encourage competitors to adhere to international norms." #SOF #People #Partners #Teammates

#Riskmanagement diversity is crucial for maintaining a resilient #supplychain and data-driven operations are key to increased decision-making and operational effectiveness in naval operations.

The Office of the Chief of Naval Operations #NAVPLAN should be on every warfighters reading list, focused directly on #Readiness in the #IndoPacific and enhancing our long-term advantage. Adm. Franchetti provides a vision of how the US Navy will fight to win and exploit sea control in a high-end, information-centric, global battlespace as part of an increasing joint and combined ecosystem. This guidance enhances the U.S. Indo-Pacific strategy in the priority theater, ensuring the force is ready today and in the future, calling for a 80% surge availability. With the #IndoPacific made up of 83% water, this is the Navy America needs. #FreeAndOpenIndoPacific #ReadyTodayForTomorrow Read More ?? https://lnkd.in/gkGj5xw8

Cooperation between the allied democracies hasn't been more essential in 80 years. However, when I see these large-scale naval exercises, I think we are fighting the last war, not preparing for the one already upon us. Have we learned nothing from Ukraine? Nothing from our intelligence on China's military development? Grand fleet manoeuvers make excellent targets for Chinese ship-buster missiles and the new class of air, surface, and underwater sea drones. The US carrier group in the Red Sea can't defeat the Houthis. How will the Grand Fleet defeat the China/Russia/Iran axis? A carrier group's operating range is about 500 miles. A Chinese carrier-buster missile has a range of 750 miles. Only one has to hit. And they are much cheaper than a carrier, a naval fighter plane, or a defensive missile. The NATO nations are ramping up their defense spending, and justifiably so. However, a massive percentage of that spending will do nothing to make the free world safer. Indeed, it is a distraction from accelerating the development of the systems that will make the free world safer. Time to wake up.

The goals set by Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Lisa Franchetti in her new fleet-wide guidance may be tough, but they are realistic, the head of the Navy said. “Today I released my Navigation Plan for America’s Warfighting Navy. “This is my strategic guidance to the fleet and focuses on two strategic ends: 1) Readiness for the possibility of war with the Peoples Republic of China by 2027, and 2) Enhancing long-term advantage. We pursue these ends through two mutually reinforcing ways: 1) Implement Project 33 and 2) Expand Navy’s contribution to the Joint warfighting ecosystem. Together we will ensure the US Navy remains the world’s premier fighting force.“ See https://lnkd.in/gQEsPZfm

Kudos to Dr. Tom Karako and Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) for hosting another most interesting security forum. This week, the spotlight was on #RADM Fred Pyle, N96 on the #CNO's staff at the #Pentagon. The wide-ranging, overarching theme: recent operations in the #RedSea and #MediterraneanSea, building the #futurefleet, and pursuing #globalovermatch capabilities. The discussion may be viewed at https://lnkd.in/espsSkTK Great insights and updates were provided by the US Navy two-star leader. Of relevance to MS&T: In response Dr. Karako's question, how have the ships [in the Red Sea] been performing?" RADM Pyle responded, "We could not be more pleased with how they are performing. It is evidence of...investments in training, #virtual, #live and #constructive of how we train..." MS&T followers have watched US Navy make significant investments in #surfacewarfaretraining since the service's two horrific collisions at sea in 2017. Most recently we noted this development https://lnkd.in/e6EXF_53. We'll continue following and commenting on the sea service's efforts to strengthen its training programs across the LVC domains Marty Kauchak, editor US Fleet Forces Command Allied Maritime Command Naples US Naval Education & Training Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (NAWCTSD)

Uncertain times call for trusted partners. Partners who are equally committed to the mission and role of the Royal Australian Navy. We have been growing as an Australian company since 2012 to develop Australia's largest local, dedicated, naval engineering design and sustainment capability. Australians supporting #Australia, doing the work in Australia. We've built the relationships, the understanding and expertise that the RAN relies on to be a credible force deterrent. We're here to ensure that our Navy has the tools, systems and platforms they need to navigate the future. #defenceindustry #YourADF Defence Australia #sovereigncapability #navalshipbuilding Richard Marles Pat Conroy Jim McDowell #supplychain #navalarchitecture #engineeringcapability
