Legacy research and development (R&D) cycles can no longer keep pace with today’s demands. Product complexity is surging, fueled by interconnectivity, autonomy and artificial intelligence (AI) while cybersecurity pressures intensify and regulation hurdles remain high.
To stay ahead, defense industry R&D leaders must accelerate development and transform to deliver faster, smarter and more resilient innovations at scale.
