Episode 7: Defense with Paul Lyons

Episode Summary

In our sixth episode, SCSP Senior Director for Defense, Paul Lyons expands on SCSP's analysis of key geopolitical, technological, and organizational challenges confronting the U.S. military and recommends a series of bold initiatives to bolster America’s fighting edge, particularly against the People’s Liberation Army (PLA).

Episode Notes

We want to ensure the U.S. military opens up a commanding lead in innovation and lethality by doing the following: 

1. Forge the World’s Most Dominant Fighting Force by Organizing and Equipping the Department of Defense for Unrivaled Lethality and Technological Supremacy;
2. Seize and Hold the Commanding Ground in AI and Digital Warfare to Guarantee American Leadership in the Defining Battlespace of the 21st Century; and
3. Resurrect American Industrial Might by Building a 21st Century Arsenal of Democracy to Secure Our Technological and Military Edge.
