00:00We think,you know,Taiwan is the number four trading partner with the United States.
00:07It exports an enormous amount of goods and services capabilities for the rest of the world.
00:15We understand that and we value that at U-Force.
00:19As you can imagine,building unmanned systems requires a resilient supply chain.
00:27So we are always on the search for people that can provide or companies that can provide that robust resilient
00:36supply chain.
00:37And we think Taiwan has a lot to offer in that equation.
00:43There's a lot of things that Taiwan brings when you're running a global business.
00:49Tomorrow we will be signing an MOU with a Taiwanese supply chain company to help us build that
00:58resiliency.
00:59At this time,that is the extent of our relationship with Taiwan.
01:06And we seek to use and capitalize and build redundancy and capability in our supply chain with all the
01:17great things that Taiwan builds for the world.
01:19So we are always on the lookout for better supply chains,better parts,cheaper parts of course,but
01:33parts that are still as resilient or more resilient.
01:37And Taiwan has really been a valuable member of our supply chain.
01:44And we look to continue to grow that partnership and to grow our use of Taiwan components.
01:52This is a big gathering of USB companies in Taiwan these recent days.
02:02And people kind of twisted it like people try to grab their budget like we can propose.
02:11But I what I'm hearing from you is that you are not only you're bringing the demands of
02:18components for the global house.
02:20That's right.
02:21That's right.
02:23So when I look at that question we just think about operating in different sea states.
02:29Again U-Force we continually test in a variety of sea states and a variety of ocean
02:35conditions.
02:36Understanding that the Pacific is vastly different than the Atlantic which is also different than the Indian Ocean
02:43and other in the Mediterranean and other parts of the world.
02:47So we demonstrated that we can perform in a sea state 4.
02:52We can be survivable up through sea state 6.
02:56So our platforms are built to handle these rougher water situations.
03:04And our actual performance at sea demonstrates that.
03:10I think the number one lesson they probably should take from Ukraine is the resilience of the Ukrainian people.
03:20I think that's in the innovation of the Ukrainian people.
03:26It's two things I think the world could learn from the people of Ukraine.
03:33The resilience to continue to move forward,to continue to believe in democracy,to continue to believe in their personal
03:45freedoms.
03:46I think is an amazing lesson for everyone.
03:56And then the innovation cycle.
04:01The people of Ukraine have built more and more capability through their raw innovation and talent.
04:11and their engineering skills.
04:15I think if the rest of the world could innovate in ways that the people of Ukraine do.
04:22We probably would have moved even further along as an advanced society.
04:27So I always think their innovation cycle is something we can all learn from and improve outcomes for the rest
04:39of the world.
04:42So while we're going to see the right of us, the human sector.
04:43I think that's where we live.
04:43This is a remarkable task for us.
04:44The people of Ukraine are not open to us,and there are no challenges.
04:44The people of Ukraine have about us.
04:44I think that there are no challenges that we can all learn from building the world.
04:44So I think there are a barriers to our practices and buildings of people of Ukraine.
04:44And then we can all be more complicated.
04:44And then we can all do a relationship to our business that we can all learn from China.
