• Align operational and intelligence findings with NATO’s DDA family of plans and planning directives.

State-of-the-Art Technology:

New Skills:

Develop your expertise in space intelligence fusion, cross-domain deterrence, and strategic threat analysis at the intersection of commercial and military space operations.
