Systems Engineering, Volume 29, Issue 2, Page 150-168, March 2026.ABSTRACT System of Systems (SoS) environments are inherently complex, involving numerous operationally and managerially independent component systems with hidden interdependencies and frequent interactions based on unstructured data. In this paper, we propose using graphical Retrieval‐Augmented Generation (GraphRAG), a tool that combines large language
