Abstract

The global security agenda has focused attention on the ability of nation states to defend their territory from aerial threats. This has 'dual-hatted' air defence systems with the traditional role of securing the battlespace from an ever-developing array of offensive airborne systems.

Air Defence Systems will address recent developments in international plans and polices, concentrating on the NATO context. In response to delegate requests, this event addresses GBAD and emerging technologies, focusing on the growing importance of Network Enabled Capability for superior air defence.

SMi's Air Defence Systems also incorporates an interactive panel discussion, where leading industry experts will discuss the need for increased protection against asymmetric threats, force transformation and the integration of air defence systems.

The growing necessity for enhanced homeland security has increased the need to ensure allied interoperability. This Conference offers solutions to enhance force projection operations. It is the perfect opportunity to review key developments and challenges facing air defence and to build your presence in the marketplace amongst the major international players in this field.
