The plan aims to improve Allies\u2019 ability to aggregate demand, deliver cutting edge capabilities, and accelerate the growth of defence industrial capacity and production, including by providing long-term orders and clear demand signals to industry.<\/p>\n<p>Developed in consultation with industry, NATO\u2019s first Commercial Space Strategy will allow the Alliance to integrate commercial solutions more flexibly and at pace, and ensure continuous access during peacetime, crisis and conflict.<\/p>\n<p>The strategy aims to create more business opportunities and cut red tape in NATO\u2019s procurement processes, simplifying how space companies engage with the Alliance, helping to increase commercial diversity, and strengthening partnerships across the Alliance.<\/p>\n<p>NATO\u2019s Rapid Adoption Action Plan substantially accelerates the adoption and integration of new technological products for defence, across all military domains. Allies commit to expedite adoption procedures, including fast-track procurement, and to allocate adequate resources to that end.<\/p>\n<p>Allies will embrace more acquisition risk in the early stages of development and are set to improve communication of Alliance-wide demand signals. The plan provides for new testing and experimentation opportunities in operationally-realistic, real world environments by launching the NATO Innovation Ranges and scaling the NATO Task Force X Model.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NATO Defence Ministers approved NATO\u2019s Updated Defence Production Action Plan, NATO\u2019s first Commercial Space Strategy and Rapid Adoption Action Plan.
