Having previously worked in the Army for many years, I joined MBDA and am now the principle point of contact for the MOD on all GBAD matters. This includes bringing Land Ceptor as part of the Sky Sabre system into service on the Falkland Islands to replace Rapier. I also lead on the development of a contingent GBAD capability for defence, assist with GBAD export campaigns as well as exhibitions.
Following a 37-year career in the Army the transition to industry has been very interesting and sometimes challenging, but I have had very good support from MBDA and my ex-military colleagues.
