Join us for the second NTSA/Tech Grove Connect webinar of 2024 spotlighting the Best Paper nominee in the HPAE committee from I/ITSEC 2023. This month, we focus on a growing dilemma in military training and operational environments as AI is increasingly adopted... how do we measure the presence or lack of trust? Measuring mission-critical trust between human operators and collaborative synthetic teammates is a DoD priority for achieving third-...

AUSA’s Noon Report Webinar series invites you to join us on Tuesday, 5 December 2023, at 12:00 EST to hear a presentation by L. Scott Lingamfelter, author of Yanks in Blue Berets: American UN Peacekeepers in the Middle East. While in his first book, Desert Redleg, Lingamfelter recounted his experiences as an artillery officer for the 1st Infantry Division during the Gulf War, in this book—and in this discussion—he will share...

Are you engaged in international defense business? Steven A. Casazza, President of Defense Trade Solutions will provide an overview of industry obligations and best practices for compliance with the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and the Arms Export Control Act (AECA). This webinar is designed to provide participants with a thorough understanding of the regulatory framework governing the export and import of defense articles,...

This presentation will discuss the history and development of Cognitive radar (CR) and electronic warfare (EW). These systems did not happen overnight but were the result of a technological tipping point that has been years in the making. Until the early 2000s, advanced radar/EW were incremental advancements in adaptive signal processing such as adaptive beamforming and space-time adaptive processing, more powerful digital embedded real-time c...

This presentation will discuss the basic principles of an Integrated Air Defense System (IADS), and the basic characteristics of a radar-guided missile system. This will be an overview webinar, not a detailed discussion. You will leave the webinar with a basic understanding of how IADS and missile intercepts work from the short discussion of each of the following 8 topics: Target detection, resolution, and countermeasures (noise jamming) Varia...

Please join us on Wednesday, 8 March, at 12:00 PM EST, for a fireside chat with Dr. James A. Helis, USA, Ret., Director of the Army Resilience Directorate, and Chaplain (MG) Thomas L. Solhjem, 25th Chief of Chaplains. They will address how the Army is equipping Commanders and leaders with prevention resources to mitigate and reduce harmful behaviors that lead to suicide; discuss the role of spiritual readiness as a protective factor in the pre...

Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery warned that losing the war in the air would cost the war itself. Over the best part of a century, airpower has defined conflict. The failure to win and sustain air superiority and supremacy makes victory at best difficult, and at worst impossible. The need to secure Electromagnetic Superiority and Supremacy (E2S) will have a similar effect on the wars of tomorrow. Forces failing to win and hold E2S while denyin...

The US military establishment is playing catchup inside the EW sector, with large defense contractors and military test centers scrambling to test and field the best sensor systems to fight against near-peer competitors. While US defense companies develop products against a hypothetical contested spectrum (Baltics, South China Sea), companies in Europe deploy solutions that must work immediately in contested civil/military spectrums, everyday....

Cognitive Electronic Warfare (EW) systems are of critical importance to the future of EW, but despite this the underlying technologies are poorly understood. The goal of this webinar is to outline the architecture of modern cognitive EW systems, and the relevant technologies. Specifically, how Reinforcement Learning works, using a variety of mechanisms to develop a sense, act, reward cycle to explore the solutions space. The webinar will concl...

"With today’s increasingly sophisticated threats in the global defense battlefield and the proliferation of Anti-Access/Area Denial (A2/AD), technology must rise to meet the challenge of complex missions – particularly for those operating across the electromagnetic spectrum. These missions call for ‘smart’ systems that address multiple threats and perform simultaneous functions, meaning that they need to be adaptive, mu...
