•Purpose: To offer an enlisted perspective on M&S initiatives across the Department of the Air Force.

•Overview:  This session will offer a practical perspective to discuss how the DAF is leveraging M&S to improve operations, and highlight unique emerging trends seen in the field. How can M&S be embedded in unit training/advanced training for quickly evolving career fields (i.e., cyber)?  How do we improve collaboration between DAF and Industry in order to streamline realistic M&S solutions to better train and equip our forces?  How can M&S tools be used to effectively train Airmen and Guardians in ethically ambiguous situations, such as those arising in cyber defense and autonomous weapons systems- (i.e. mission systems, Electronic Warfare, Orbital Warfare, etc.)?.

•Other relevant info: Our panel will have representation from NCOs in both the USAF and the USSF.
