DEFENCE CONNECT PODCAST: Australia’s loitering munitions, sovereign manufacturing and the future of drone warfare, with Innovaero’s Greg Tunny

Innovaero CEO Gregory Tunny recently joined the Defence Connect Podcast to discuss where the battlefield is heading and the growing role of autonomous systems.
 
The conversation covers Innovaero’s OWL family of loitering munitions, including the OWL-B and the turbojet-powered OWL-X. Greg explains how a common mission system, electronics, and software can support multiple operational roles, from long-range strike to counter-drone interception.
 
He also discusses Innovaero’s participation in the Advanced Strategic Capabilities Accelerator’s Mission Talon-Strike, which aims to progress emerging capabilities toward manufacture, certification, and potential entry into service. He highlights the importance of reliability, testing, and certification for weaponized uncrewed systems.
 
Based in Australia, Innovaero designs and manufactures autonomous aerial systems and precision effectors, led by its OWL product range.
