SOFTWARE-DEFINED DEFENCE CHANGES ENGINEERING PRIORITIES // Defence programs are under pressure to shorten development cycles while managing growing system complexity. That changes what customers expect from engineering partners. In a recent interview in Aerospace & Defence, Thomas Mailänder and Tobias Reger explain how EDAG Group is transferring automotive expertise into defence projects, particularly in system integration, software-defined architectures, and validation. One thing stands out: the challenge is no longer just developing technologies. It is integrating complex systems faster without compromising reliability. This is exactly where automotive methodologies become relevant. But how does that translate into defence reality when lifecycles stretch over decades, security requirements are non-negotiable, and systems must perform in unpredictable environments? Thomas Mailänder and Tobias Reger share their perspective in the full interview: https://lnkd.in/eZVaWb4c
