Strategy Analytics: AI and Big Data will be Integral Components of Future Defense Procurement and Support Spending
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Big Data is beginning to have
transformative effects on military capabilities. The Strategy Analytics (News - Alert)
Advanced Defense Systems (ADS) service report, "Global
Defense Spending Outlook 2016-2026," forecasts the global
defense budget will approach $2.41 trillion in 2026, with the
opportunities available to industry growing at a CAGR of 3.5%.
AI and Big data analytics will be integral components of future defense
procurement and support budgets which will grow to over $770 billion in
2026. Strategy Analytics has teamed with Defence IQ for the Big
Data for Defence Summit which will be held from 26th - 28th June
in London and takes place in partnership with the UK MoD Defence and
Security Accelerator (DASA). The event will bring together the military
requirement and civilian capabilities necessary to build future
proficiency in AI and big data, and enable cognitive support to
operators and users from the tactical front-line to the logistical
backend.
"AI and big data opportunities will span situational-awareness,
remote-sensing, precision targeting, combat platform/system
effectiveness, battlefield-maneuver, logistics, decision-making (command
and control) nd cyber security," noted Asif Anwar, ADS Director at
Strategy Analytics. "The UK's Defence Science and Technology
Laboratory (DSTL) is working on developing a big data platform, and also
launched a challenge in 2017 to develop an automated system that will
identify and classify vehicles from satellite imagery, while the UK's
Royal Navy is pursuing Project Nelson to exploit and enable developments
in AI across the whole naval enterprise."
The Big
Data for Defence Summit will host expert speakers including
Colonel Jerome Lemaire, Head of Digital Transformation of Defense
Systems and Integration of AI, Directorate-General for Armaments (DGA), French
Ministry of the Armed Forces discussing maintaining cyber security
in European Army structures, and Mario Blokken, Head Permanent
Secretariat, European Center of Army Operability who
will outline the challenges in protecting data, and the applications of
AI platforms in the cyber domain.
The full conference agenda is available here

across industry, bringing together buyers and suppliers in one
location. Focused and high-level, the event will be an excellent
platform to initiate new business relationships. With tailored
networking, attendees can achieve the face-to-face contact that
overcrowded trade shows cannot deliver.
