    The One Skill AI Can't Replace in Intelligence | The ISR Debrief Ep. 3

    The tools of warfare are changing faster than the doctrine. So are we training intelligence professionals for the fight that's coming — or the one we already fought? In Episode 3 of The ISR Debrief, host Wesley Rose sits down with three retired U.S. Air Force intelligence leaders — Chad Hartman, Jason "Stutz" Stutzman, and Jeff "Monty" Montgomery — for a candid conversation on how the intelligence community trains its people for a fight that changes by the year. They break down why the classic intelligence cycle strains at the tactical edge, how live-virtual-constructive (LVC) training lets analysts fail fast and learn faster, the cost-asymmetry problem of cheap drones against expensive interceptors, and the real role of AI in analysis and training — with one throughline: a good analyst is still a good analyst. GUESTS Chad Hartman — SVP, Global ISR Solutions, Integrity ISR; retired USAF intelligence colonel and former NATO targeting and collection management authority. Jason "Stutz" Stutzman — Site Lead & Program Manager, Integrity ISR; retired USAF intelligence major who led the Department's largest multi-service intelligence training squadron. Jeff "Monty" Montgomery — Senior Instructor & Course Developer, Integrity ISR; retired USAF intelligence lieutenant colonel with 29 years in intelligence, collection management, targeting, and training.

    NATO's AI Targeting System Is Live — Who's Actually Pulling the Trigger? | The ISR Debrief Ep. 2

    What happens when the weapons that shaped the last generation of warfare are no longer enough for the next? In Episode 2 of the ISR Debrief, host Wesley Rose is joined by Chad Hartman (Senior Vice President of Global ISR Solutions at Integrity ISR, retired US Air Force Intelligence Colonel) and retired US Air Force Colonel Tom Dobbs, who spent 33 years leading intelligence organizations across the Pacific, Europe, Africa, and the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency. Together, they break down the biggest ISR and defense stories out of this week's NATO summit — why Ukraine is manufacturing Patriot missiles, how autonomous systems are changing the battlefield, and why artificial intelligence may become the most decisive capability of the next generation of conflict.

    Whoever Sees First Wins the Next War | The ISR Debrief

    Modern warfare is changing fast. The side that finds, fixes, tracks, targets, and engages first may hold the decisive advantage in the next major conflict. In this first episode of The ISR Debrief, we break down why intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, targeting, and multi-domain operations are becoming central to modern war. We discuss lessons from Ukraine, Russia, Iran, the South China Sea, and the Pacific — and why the future fight may be decided by sensors, kill chains, kill webs, and the ability to act faster than the adversary. Topics covered: ISR, targeting, F2T2EA, kill chains, kill webs, maritime operations, drones, satellites, electronic warfare, China, Russia, Ukraine, Iran, and the future of multi-domain operations. Subscribe for more conversations on ISR, targeting, military intelligence, and modern warfare.
