Defence Turkey: Dear Tom Fillingham, first of all thanks for the interview. Could you please tell us about your role at BAE Systems?

My current role is to lead the Future Combat Air Systems organisation within our Military Aircraft and Information (MA&I) business based in Warton, England. There are essentially three main areas that I have responsibility. The first is Future Projects and Technologies, where we evaluate future trends and opportunities, capability requirements, advanced concepts, disruptive technologies, identifying strategic opportunities and business propositions to support our overall growth objectives.
