Welcome to War Quants
Quantitative and data-driven insights at the nexus of national security, strategic competition, and defense tech/entrepreneurship.
Who are we?
We’re a group of national security practitioners, observers, analysts, and sometimes writers who were fortunate to be brought together on active duty. We combine our diverse professional experiences in combat arms, engineering, and command and control with a collective appreciation for quantitative and data-driven analysis to bring you War Quants.
What do we do?
War Quants examines defense issues, national security strategy, and defense tech trends through a quantitative and data-driven lens. We believe that quantitative decision support can serve as a powerful tool for defense professionals of all backgrounds. On War Quants, you can expect to see writing that features modeling and simulation, data analytics, statistics, and other applied mathematics disciplines, all communicated in an approachable, accessible way for non-quantitative readers.
Here are a few examples of our work to date:
