AbstractOver the years, there has been significant progress in establishing combat survivability to what we know today as a high-priority requirement for all our combat aircraft. Investments in advanced research applications have paid significant dividends to the warfighter in terms of technological solutions, which increased combat effectiveness and saved lives. The focus of this conference will be to examine the modernisation of aerospace survivability, examining susceptibility reduction and low vulnerability technologies, as well as associated cost and performance improvements. It will discuss the required role of both manned and unmanned aircraft in modern warfare and the related survivability requirements. Experience gathered from recent combat operations will be reviewed, addressing force readiness and capability shortfalls, force transition issues, and longer-term requirements that could arise from potential adversaries’ exploitation of new technologies and operational concepts. This will be forum, which will unveil the most cost effective, and efficient means of combating the survivability challenge, offering practical knowledge on the development of mission ready military aircraft.
