07 - develop a Government air hub at Findel airport; - implement a military medicine project involving, in particular, operationally deployable medical teams specialized in trauma surgery and infectious diseases, that will support Luxembourg hospitals when not deployed, together with increased bed capacity, incorporated in an existing hospital facility, for use in times of crisis; - continue developing expertise and capabilities in the future oriented areas of “space” and “cyber defence” in order to meet the need for surveillance, communications and data link capabilities, but also the need for data storage and analysis capabilities, and so as to enhance the safety of our military personnel, particularly on deployments; - develop a strategy for industry, innovation and research in order to involve Luxembourg’s economic fabric in defence capability building; - develop a recruitment strategy to meet the requirement for adequate human resources with suitable profiles, particularly specialists capable of developing and implementing the capabilities of the defence organization and of the Luxembourg Armed Forces; - conduct a study on establishing a national service of availability enabling skilled civilians to be mobilized in the event of a crisis so as to strengthen the resilience of the State and its departments; - establish a national capability-development agency tasked with developing and implementing major investment projects. For these new directions, the Luxembourg Defence will ensure that capabilities of high added value are acquired in the recognized priority capability areas, that each project is considered in the light of its potential relevance for Luxembourg society, and will establish durable structures that anchor defence in Luxembourg’s society and allow better planning of our defence effort. In addition, the Luxembourg Defence will take particular care to tailor its approach to suit the frameworks of bilateral and multinational cooperation and partnerships in the areas of capability building and deployment. These Guidelines will be detailed in a more concrete planning document, a Defence Master Plan, to be updated annually.
