Happening now 🚨 #DragonSpear 2024 ♠️ More than 800 participants from industry, academia, military, and government laboratories are taking part in USSOCOM’s Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear #CBRN Defense Research and Development Acquisition Experiment Dragon Spear in Perry, Georgia, with over 150 registered technology partners. Special operations forces demonstrated how they detect, identify, and mitigate Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction threats to evacuate casualties in an operational scenario, and displayed how they are prepared to fight through CBRN threat environments to protect SOF forces. Dragon Spear enables modular joint SOF, conventional, multinational, and interagency partners to provide warfighters and combatant commanders with tailorable options to protect, fight and win in CBRN-contested environments through experimentation.

Impressive collaboration at #DragonSpear 2024! A critical effort showcasing readiness and innovation in countering CBRN threats to protect and empower our warfighters.
I'm just going to throw this out, but is it not a little covenant that this is taking place right now? With Russia threatening nuclear war 🤣. Not sure if they hold it at the same time every year, but I don't believe in coincidences anymore.
Living in a suburb of NYC and having been a former tenant in The Empire State Building, I am really relieved to read about this demonstration in this short note.
Thank you for having us again this year participating in RDAX 24. An incredibly well run event in support of our war fighters and their unique needs.
We were grateful for the opportunity to participate again! It's a wonderful opportunity to meet end users, Industry and our CBDP partners in a different environment, which is of great value to our incremental delivery efforts for the Joint Force. Thanks for another great year!
800 plus participated but only 170 likes.... Guess everyone isn't so LinkedIn 😒
Train hard! Stay safe!
