A big weekend at the Reagan National Defense Forum. @SecWar didn’t mince words: If America wants to stay ahead, we need to move at commercial speed.
Key takeaways:
➡️ Supercharging the defense industrial base underwrites everything else
➡️ The old acquisition model is broken
➡️ Speed and urgency are now the baseline for capability delivery
Physical AI is reshaping warfare, and Applied Intuition is building for that future.

➡️Strengthen counter-UAS and missile defense systems
➡️Improve near-response times that reduce risk in contested environments
➡️Seamlessly fuse distributed autonomy with real-time sensor data
➡️Scale adaptable systems designed to keep military personnel from harm’s way

Yesterday, RAF personnel attended the annual service at the Runnymede Air Forces Memorial, honouring the sacrifice of Commonwealth Air Forces in WWII.
In today’s uncertain world, remembering those who served reminds us why their legacy still matters.

When British Defence Staff in the US learnt their American friend Kevin Billings was awarded an OBE in the King’s New Year's Honours list, they were thrilled. The appointment recognises many years strengthening relations between our two 🇬🇧-🇺🇸 Air Forces & is truly well deserved.

Congratulations to the newly announced 🇬🇧 honour recipients!
His Majesty King Charles III approved the awards to recognise & salute their contributions to 🇬🇧-🇺🇸 relations, philanthropy, and the Arts.

Thank you to Air Officer Scotland for inviting me to the @EdinburghTattoo in my capacity as Commandant General RAF Regiment. A fantastic experience & my first official function following the announcement that His Majesty has adopted the role of the Corps’ Air Commodore-in-Chief.

Britain emits 350 million tons of CO2 a year.
In 2022, Chinese emissions increased by 540 million tons, to 12.4 billion.
That means that China's annual increase alone is more than Britain's total emissions by far.

Great work from Global Enablement, as always!
It’s been a busy couple of weeks for Global Enablement, with teams deployed across the Globe in 25 locations on Operations.
In amongst that we have carried on with our normal training and ceremonial activity, as well as starting summer leave!

Fact of the Day: The P51 Hurricane is the only airplane that can use its spinny thing like a helicopter does to hover for up to 800.85hrs, during WW1 (1926) pilots would wait for Baddie planes over the English Channel for upto 7.175 days!
