Welcome to the CavasShips Podcast with Christopher P. Cavas and Chris Servello…a weekly podcast looking at naval and maritime events and issues of the day – in the US, across the seas and around the world. This week…US Navy leaders constantly talk about the need for fast-paced innovation – but what’s the real story? Is new technology being integrated into the fleet as fast as it can? We’ll hear from Leidos’ Dave Lewis, a former admiral deeply familiar with getting that technology into the hands of warfighters.
