🌟 Meet Our LNO: MSgt Dakota Belcher 🌟 MSgt Dakota Belcher is the AFWERX Spark Cell Coordinator at Luke AFB, with a background in Aircraft Fuel Systems. Dakota became an LNO with a simple goal: to help Airmen solve their problems more efficiently. Having faced frustrating processes early in his career, he wanted to alleviate those struggles for others. Dakota enjoys guiding Airmen through various problem-solving approaches, helping them find the best solutions. A memorable experience for him was attending Liberating Structures training and applying those tools with the Tesseract crew and Airmen across the force. “I believe the biggest impact I’ve made is changing people’s mindset—seeing ‘problems’ as ‘opportunities’ to make a positive impact.” His advice for future LNOs? Stay flexible. The innovation space is always changing, and adaptability is key to making a difference. 🛫 Want to make a difference like Dakota?

🇬🇧𝗙𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗼𝘆𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗶𝗿 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲 (𝗥𝗔𝗙)🇬🇧 Tesseract recently had a wonderful opportunity connecting with the Royal Air Force at the RAF Engineering Conference in the UK, where we exchanged ideas on strategic initiatives, logistics innovation, and ways to enhance operational efficiencies. In addition, we led a hands-on Theory of Constraints (ToC) workshop with 10 RAF innovation office members, providing valuable insights into how ToC can improve maintenance and logistics operations. Our team -- CMSgt Greg Beck , SMSgt Amanda Dennis , TSgt Pablo de la Cruz , Mr. Jake Dolinger -- along with Lt. Col. Joshua Downing from the Advanced Concepts team at A4LM, showcased ongoing efforts to drive innovation in Air Force logistics in front of 150 people at the largest gathering of RAF Aircraft Maintainers at RAF Cosford. As the RAF looks to further develop infrastructure and grow a strong culture of innovation, the conference provided a unique platform to share our perspectives and the evolving challenges and opportunities. We concluded the two-day visit with a formal dinner hosted by the RAF and set the stage for continued collaboration. Tesseract looks forward to sharing case studies, inviting RAF members to our ToC Summit and courses, and exploring future engagement opportunities! 💪 We’re excited to continue strengthening our ties with FVEY partner nations, advancing interoperability, and driving innovation through this partnership! 🚀 #RAF #RoyalAirForce #LogisticsInnovation #Logistics #TheoryOfConstraints #FVEY #Tesseract #A4L #A4LM HAF-A4L

🌟 𝗔𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 𝗪𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀: 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗡𝗼𝘄? 𝗙𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗪𝗲𝗮𝗽𝗼𝗻🌟 This week, we're highlighting Project Weapon, a custom adapter cable designed to connect to an Aerospace Ground Equipment (AGE) turbine generator power outlet. It provides power to the Armament Stores System Tester (SST), which enables efficient testing of weapon pylons. 🚀 For Armament teams deployed abroad, this innovation eliminates the need to configure multiple pieces of equipment to power the SST, reducing over 50% of the Armament footprint during deployment. This allows for streamlined operations and also saves the DoD thousands of dollars annually across all F-16 Armament teams conducting weapon pylon tests. 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀: The Project Weapon team has recently collaborated with industry partners to source additional components for the next prototype and has filed patent paperwork. In addition, the team has partnered with AFLCMC/WNA (Automatic Test Systems) to test several Armament SSTs and gather user feedback, which will take place at Nellis AFB. We wish continued success to the Project Weapon team (SSgt Ryan Amador , MSgt Randall Stoiner , MSgt Anthony Cicchino, TSgt Matthew Connelly , Mik James) as they drive this innovation forward! 💡 #ProjectWeapon #AerospaceGroundEquipment #AGE #WeaponPylon #SST #Tesseract #LogisticsInnovation #A4L

🚀 𝗔𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 𝗪𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀: 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗡𝗼𝘄? 𝗙𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗞𝗖-𝟭𝟯𝟱 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗼 𝗖𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗲 (𝗣𝗔𝗧𝗥) 🚀 We’re back with our series highlighting the finalists from last year’s Aether Sprint 2024! In the spotlight today is the KC-135 Cargo Crane (PATR), an electric crane solution built to enhance cargo-handling capabilities for locations without access to traditional equipment like K-loaders or forklifts. The PATR system reduces setup time and requires minimal training for crews, making it a versatile tool in contested or degraded environments. By providing a fast, efficient means of loading combat equipment or supplies, PATR cuts ground operation time by up to 50%, strengthening our logistics flexibility in challenging conditions. 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀: Through the Reverse Engineering and Critical Tooling (REACT) program, the team is currently developing additional prototypes, which will be tested by KC-135 aircrews. The team at REACT had the opportunity to capture interior scans of a KC-135, and these scans will be used to refine the design for further user testing. We’re proud of the PATR team (TSgt Justin Ulin , Lt. Col. Nate Mocalis , TSgt Nick Sowder, MSgt Don Lehman , Capt. Friedrich Martin, TSgt Tristen Lang) as they continue to advance logistics capabilities and support critical operations across the Air Force with this innovative crane solution. 💪 #AetherSprint #InnovationInAction #AirmenInnovators #KC135 #PATR #CargoCrane #LogisticsInnovation #Tesseract #A4L
