Abstract(s)
O atual contexto macroeconómico, de fortes constrangimentos económicos, crescentes conflitos
assimétricos e agudizar das crises migratórias que afetam a Segurança e a Defesa da Europa, a
par da situação de pandemia mundial e imprescindibilidade de dotar as Forças Armadas (FFAA),
e a Força Aérea (FA) em particular, com capacidades modernas para realizar a sua missão, coloca
desafios adicionais aos processos de financiamento destas capacidades. O presente estudo avalia
a possibilidade de otimizar a praxis de participação da FA em programas de financiamento de
capacidades militares, pauta-se por um raciocínio indutivo, estratégia de investigação qualitativa e
estudo de caso como desenho de pesquisa, e baseia-se em dados das entrevistas semiestruturadas
conduzidas a vinte experts nestas matérias dos três Ramos das FFAA, Estado-Maior-General das
Forças Armadas, Ministério da Defesa e Agência Europeia de Defesa. Dos resultados obtidos,
concluiu-se que poderá ser uma mais-valia implementar oito medidas associadas a um processo
de financiamento de capacidades, e traduzidas na criação de um Project Management Office,
definição da estratégia de participação nos programas de financiamento (identificação das
capacidades de duplo uso e exploração do Espaço pela Defesa), formação dos Recursos Humanos,
melhoria do networking e colocação de militares em posições estratégicas fora do Ramo
The current macroeconomic context of strong economic constraints, growing asymmetrical warfare and worsening migratory crises that affect Europe’s security and defence, compounded by the current global pandemic and the need to provide the Portuguese Armed Forces (AAFF), and the Portuguese Air Force (PrtAF) in particular, with the modern capabilities they need to carry out their mission, makes the process of financing these capabilities more challenging than ever. This study assesses if the PrtAF’s procedures for applying to programmes that fund military capabilities can be optimised. The study uses inductive reasoning, a qualitative research strategy and a case study research design, supported by data collected from semi-structured interviews conducted with twenty experts in these matters from the three branches of the AAFF, the Armed Forces General Staff, the Ministry of Defence and the European Defence Agency. The findings led to the elaboration of eight measures that aim to improve the capability funding process, which consist of creating a Project Management Office, defining a strategy for the PrtAF’s participation in financing programmes (identifying dual-use capabilities and exploring space for defence purposes), training Human Resources, improving networking, and placing military personnel in strategic positions outside their branch of origin
