Aerospace

All while Canada blocks our great American banks and companies throughout the USA.

They even blocked Gulfstream Aerospace from doing business in Canada.

Completely unjust and unfair.

That era is over.

Here's Bombardier's statement.

The American aerospace industry is a clear winner on trade and exports.

Bombardier is a strong contributor to the sector, creating tens of thousands of jobs across the U.S., Aerospace is routinely one of the top export sectors for the U.S. in a continual trade surplus winter.

Bombardier's American workers are based all around the U.S. with sites in Kansas, Texas, Arizona, Florida, Connecticut, Illinois, Delaware, California, Washington, D.C., and New Jersey, as well as overall direct employment presence in more than 20 states.

that? Well, there were a few, but I'll tell you something that is beyond imagination.

My father was a very big negotiator with the United Auto Workers Union, and they also, you know, Aerospace, De Havilland Aircraft, Douglas Aircraft.

We're talking about the big boys of the time.

And of course, management wasn't very happy with my father.

We are gonna fill you in today on what was shared and how you can kick the tires yourself.

Joining me today as my space cyber sherpa for DEF CON 34 is Nick Cohen, principal engineer at the Aerospace Corporation.

And I say it every episode, but especially for today's show, there are lots and lots of links in the show notes, as we're gonna be talking about a lot of great space cyber resources that you will want to check out for yourself.

Frameworks, CTFs, simulations, and oh yeah, the learning game that can give you space dysentery.

It's educational, I promise.

Let's dive in.

So, um, I work at the Aerospace Corporation in the, um, space cyber, um, group.

So I've been doing that...

Welcome to the Aerospace Advantage podcast, brought to you by PenFed.

I'm your host, Heather "Lucky" Penney.

Here on the Aerospace Advantage, we speak with leaders in the armed forces, industry, and other subject matter experts to explore the intersection of strategy, operational concepts, technology, and policy when it comes to air and space power.

So small UAVs, what most people call drones, are proving their effectiveness in the modern battle space each and every day.

So Ukraine, Russia, Iran have been using them in increasing numbers with lethal effects for years.

But also other things.

The Northern Plains Test Site is a North Dakota state initiative to figure out how we do surveillance even beyond the fence line of small drones, and I mean surveillance like Federal Aviation Agency type of surveillance.

How do we do beyond visual line of sight for drones of class one, two, three drones? They have put a substantial amount of money in the last few years working to validate that beyond visual line of sight, which we capitalize, um, with the Point Defense Battle Lab a- and with our Grand Sky partners, with the University of North Dakota's Aerospace.

I don't know if you have some favorites in there that you care to mention, Costco, Walmart, names that have pulled back some.

You also had Aerospace and Defense as a group that you were watching.

Yeah, I think if we step back, you can even jump into Walmart's call and you see, and this has happened over a few quarters, actually over a few years, you have this very prevalent K-shaped economy.

It's definitely not a good thing.

You like real estate? No.

He was in Aerospace.

Oh, yes.

Yes.
