1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,330 we're out here doing a live fire with 2 00:00:02,330 --> 00:00:04,470 purpose . We're gonna be executing a 3 00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:06,369 missile exercise , shooting sm to 4 00:00:06,369 --> 00:00:08,369 hopefully intercepting a drum . The 5 00:00:08,369 --> 00:00:10,480 data that we collect on board is 6 00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:14,400 crucial in terms of not only evaluating 7 00:00:14,410 --> 00:00:16,890 the crew performance but also the 8 00:00:16,890 --> 00:00:19,620 system capability for the readiness . 9 00:00:19,630 --> 00:00:21,670 It's important to conduct analysis 10 00:00:21,670 --> 00:00:24,640 during um practice events in order for 11 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:26,640 us to both look into possible 12 00:00:26,652 --> 00:00:28,832 advancements in our systems and also 13 00:00:28,842 --> 00:00:31,009 work on advancing our training for the 14 00:00:31,009 --> 00:00:33,120 sailors . It's very exciting . It's a 15 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,286 completely different world aboard ship 16 00:00:35,286 --> 00:00:37,509 and as a civilian , I think it's really 17 00:00:37,509 --> 00:00:39,902 intriguing to see how our sailors um 18 00:00:39,902 --> 00:00:42,712 live day by day . I work with the two N . 19 00:00:42,712 --> 00:00:44,823 S . W . C . Corona riders , they pull 20 00:00:44,823 --> 00:00:47,702 all the data and the magic that they do 21 00:00:47,702 --> 00:00:49,758 put the replay together so they take 22 00:00:49,758 --> 00:00:51,842 all the equipment , data information 23 00:00:51,842 --> 00:00:54,394 from communications and link and they 24 00:00:54,394 --> 00:00:57,914 put it into a visual and audio 25 00:00:57,924 --> 00:01:00,091 debris system called Cindy's . I think 26 00:01:00,091 --> 00:01:02,313 the value that when Corona was on board 27 00:01:02,313 --> 00:01:04,264 with us , it really helped me even 28 00:01:04,264 --> 00:01:06,208 learn more about my job . I didn't 29 00:01:06,208 --> 00:01:08,375 really kind of know how to do the side 30 00:01:08,375 --> 00:01:10,542 of that section . So it kind of helped 31 00:01:10,542 --> 00:01:12,153 me learn as well as my other 32 00:01:12,153 --> 00:01:14,264 counterparts , you don't get better . 33 00:01:14,264 --> 00:01:16,431 You don't grow , you don't create that 34 00:01:16,431 --> 00:01:18,486 next level of capability . If you're 35 00:01:18,486 --> 00:01:20,375 not willing to take some risk and 36 00:01:20,375 --> 00:01:22,597 you're not willing to evolve tactically 37 00:01:22,597 --> 00:01:24,653 and technically Smithwick provides a 38 00:01:24,653 --> 00:01:26,431 level of knowledge , a level of 39 00:01:26,431 --> 00:01:28,653 understanding and a training capability 40 00:01:28,653 --> 00:01:30,875 to my crew that I just don't have on my 41 00:01:30,875 --> 00:01:32,931 own , their tactical mentors , their 42 00:01:32,931 --> 00:01:34,764 technical mentors , they provide 43 00:01:34,764 --> 00:01:37,116 fantastic support to me and my team to 44 00:01:37,116 --> 00:01:39,536 make us better war fighters and 45 00:01:39,536 --> 00:01:41,703 obviously Naval Surface Warfare Center 46 00:01:41,703 --> 00:01:43,869 Corona with their ability to analyze , 47 00:01:43,869 --> 00:01:45,816 reconstruct and help execute these 48 00:01:45,816 --> 00:01:48,830 events . Can inform both me and smith 49 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,270 on the performance of my team and the 50 00:01:51,270 --> 00:01:53,680 performance of my gear with that deeper 51 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,736 level data analytics that just isn't 52 00:01:55,736 --> 00:01:57,847 available in the heat of the moment . 53 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,782 We work together and that that feedback 54 00:02:04,782 --> 00:02:07,004 loop with the engineers with the people 55 00:02:07,004 --> 00:02:09,171 developing the systems . We are better 56 00:02:09,171 --> 00:02:11,282 able to operate our systems and , and 57 00:02:11,282 --> 00:02:13,338 and get more efficient , more , more 58 00:02:13,338 --> 00:02:15,620 lethal . Logical . In my experience is 59 00:02:15,620 --> 00:02:17,564 there's no such thing as a perfect 60 00:02:17,564 --> 00:02:19,398 weapon system or combat system . 61 00:02:19,398 --> 00:02:21,398 There's always some error somewhere 62 00:02:21,398 --> 00:02:23,342 because it's a complex system that 63 00:02:23,342 --> 00:02:25,120 needs to be tested , you know , 64 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,064 continuously and also , you know , 65 00:02:27,064 --> 00:02:29,176 assessed and evaluated . That's where 66 00:02:29,176 --> 00:02:31,920 Corona can play a crucial role in 67 00:02:31,930 --> 00:02:34,360 providing that feedback . There's smith 68 00:02:34,450 --> 00:02:36,339 with the tactic , the technical , 69 00:02:36,339 --> 00:02:38,339 there's the surface warfare centers 70 00:02:38,339 --> 00:02:40,672 providing that expert tactical analysis , 71 00:02:40,672 --> 00:02:42,783 providing me the best system possible 72 00:02:42,783 --> 00:02:44,783 and there's the crew doing the best 73 00:02:44,783 --> 00:02:46,839 they can and striving to be the best 74 00:02:46,839 --> 00:02:49,061 possible war fighters out on the sea on 75 00:02:49,061 --> 00:02:51,228 board this ship to execute the mission 76 00:02:51,228 --> 00:02:53,283 and there's no better way to prepare 77 00:02:53,283 --> 00:02:55,506 ourselves for the upcoming challenges . 78 00:02:55,506 --> 00:02:55,060 The fleet . The navy and the nation are 79 00:02:55,060 --> 00:02:55,690 going to face
