Mention the word military and what springs to mind? Regimented, disciplined, trained groups of people who do what they are told and follow orders? What could they possibly teach us about Agile? Bruce will take you through an approach that the air force used to tap into the skills of small, highly motivated and successful teams to develop winning tactics tactics that allowed them to win against adversaries with newer, more manoeuvrable aircraft equipped with more powerful engines, better radars and longer range weapons. Using the construct of John Boyds OODA loop, Bruce will show you how the Agile principles of Transparency, Inspection and Adaptation have been applied successfully in an arena well outside of software development.

- 15. 15 Mission Planned Briefed Flown Debriefed
- 16. 16 Planning 2 Week Exercise F-18 Hornet vs A-4K Skyhawk SWOT analysis Strengths - ours/theirs Weaknesses ours/theirs Opportunities What are the threats
- 17. 17 Our Strengths Small aircraft Hard to see on radar and with the Mk. 1 eyeball Radar warning capability We are world-class pilots There are only 12 of us we are a very tight Team Were very sneaky We hate to lose Specially to the Aussies
- 18. 18 Our Weaknesses Old aircraft Skyhawk has Limited radar performance Short range weapons Poor sustained turn performance Low top speed
- 19. 19 Opportunities Were very very cunning so lets surprise them They are predictable: In the way they fly their aircraft In the way they employ their missiles They are a larger air force, so they cant adapt quickly we arent and we can
- 20. 20 Threats F-18 has: Better radar Better sustained turn capability Better and longer range weapons Supersonic
- 21. 21 The Analysis? Sometimes it sucks to be us They can see us on radar before we can see them They can launch their missiles before we can launch ours They can turn more tightly than us We might as well go home because they are going to wipe the floor with us
- 22. 22 Or Are They? Their radar has limitations Their missiles have weaknesses Their Rules of Engagement are strict Their operating procedures are not flexible
- 23. 23 Radar 101 +60属 -60属
- 24. 24 Radar 101 40
- 25. 25 Radar 101 40
- 26. 26 Missiles 101 Semi-active (has no radar) Needs aircraft to illuminate target Homes on reflected radar energy Target must be tracked until missile hits Lose radar lock missile misses
- 27. 27 Tactics 101 20
- 28. 28 Radar Intercept 60 nm 80 80
- 29. 29 Radar Intercept 30 nm 80 80
- 30. 30 Radar Intercept 30 nm 40 40
- 31. 31 Radar Intercept 20 nm 40 40
- 32. 32 Radar Intercept 15 nm 40 40
- 33. 33 Radar Intercept 15 nm 40 40
- 34. 34 Time to Get Cunning Designated pairs No ego, no rank Try out tactics against each other Practice the ones that work Refine/adjust/drop What ifs?
- 35. 35 What We Came Up With Hand grenade Drag and bag What the ? Do I feel lucky?
- 36. 36 Exercise Hot Wash-up Review of the plan Review of the conduct What worked What didnt What didnt help What do we do now/next?
- 37. 37 Reality Check There will always be better aircraft, weapons and equipment If it aint broke doing the same thing makes us predictable Doing things differently and adapting quickly gives us an edge Better people are the difference Results against F18?
- 38. 38 OODA Loop So What? Reminiscing is fine but what does the OODA Loop have to do with you? Tactical level developing new features Operational level developing new products Strategic level heading in a new direction How quick is you decision making process? How quick does it need to be?
- 39. Questions? Interactive discussions designed to test knowledge
