WEBVTT

00:07.099 --> 00:10.489
So we've been really concerned as , as

00:10.500 --> 00:12.667
a an organization and as a nation with

00:12.667 --> 00:14.722
the threats that are evolving around

00:14.722 --> 00:18.700
the world . And specifically for us ,

00:18.709 --> 00:21.200
the concern as a National Guard unit is

00:21.209 --> 00:23.620
to provide force protection and

00:23.629 --> 00:25.296
capabilities for our maneuver

00:25.296 --> 00:27.296
formations to that end , because we

00:27.296 --> 00:29.351
have the training capability and the

00:29.351 --> 00:31.899
space to do so here , we're working to

00:31.909 --> 00:34.540
do mission integration support for the

00:34.619 --> 00:36.841
into these organizations around us . So

00:36.841 --> 00:39.770
we're providing a learning space , an

00:39.779 --> 00:43.220
environment in which uh dod

00:43.229 --> 00:46.610
academic and industry can come together

00:46.650 --> 00:49.529
and create solutions in the UAs and

00:49.540 --> 00:51.762
counter U A world , an unmanned systems

00:51.762 --> 00:52.762
world .

00:55.799 --> 00:58.400
Oklahoma is really a great spot to work

00:58.409 --> 01:00.799
on that . There's so much aviation

01:01.049 --> 01:03.271
industry that's coming to Oklahoma . If

01:03.271 --> 01:04.459
not already here ,

01:10.680 --> 01:13.099
there's a big challenge in readiness

01:13.110 --> 01:15.221
today to go out and fight and compete

01:15.221 --> 01:17.388
in that unmanned systems environment .

01:17.388 --> 01:19.443
Uh And it's a complex environment to

01:19.443 --> 01:22.349
compete in . It takes a

01:22.360 --> 01:25.750
multidisciplinary capability , cyber ,

01:26.029 --> 01:28.410
electronic warfare , aviation

01:28.419 --> 01:30.641
aeronautics all have to get involved to

01:30.641 --> 01:31.919
solve those problems .

01:35.459 --> 01:37.403
We're learning as an army and as a

01:37.403 --> 01:39.515
nation right now to be competitive in

01:39.515 --> 01:41.737
that environment . And so we're leaning

01:41.737 --> 01:43.959
forward here to create that space where

01:43.959 --> 01:46.181
our commanders , our young soldiers can

01:46.181 --> 01:48.292
learn to be competitive in the future

01:48.292 --> 01:50.348
to go out on that battlefield , find

01:50.348 --> 01:49.510
and win .
