Frank DonovanGUEST
Well, initially, with the idea of au-autonomous warfare support to, um, Southern Command, it's to solve a problem of primarily domain awareness, both for us and our partners.

Frank DonovanGUEST
You know, because our partners, you know, specifically the partners we're focused on, and maybe we can talk about it with, uh, America's Counter-Cartel Coalition that SOUTHCOM leads.

Frank DonovanGUEST
So we have 18 partners that want to move forward with us to get at this narco terrorist problem.

Frank DonovanGUEST
Most of our partners have problem with domain awareness, right? And domain awareness is out over the horizon, right, or in the sky above remote areas that we see these narco terrorists cutting jungle landing strips and, and moving product around or going way out to sea, out, extending, you know, beyond the ranges of our partners' capabilities.

Frank DonovanGUEST
So domain awareness, how do we use autonomy and the systems that are progressing very quickly to in-increase really the ability to see out over the horizon, deep into the ocean or up into remote areas of their nations, over their borders for better border security? We believe autonomous systems, unmanned systems are our first step there.

Frank DonovanGUEST
So if I'm gonna ask the joint force for capabilities with the chairman as the joint force integrator, the global synchronizer that is responsible to move that force throughout the world to, to meet current needs, I believe we can use autonomy to really get at our primary problem set, which is domain awareness.
