  • Discuss the increasing use of air assets and in particular rotary wing platforms to govern conflicts against non-state actors and understand why this is leading to a sizeable increase in procurement strategy. Could this influence your marketing strategy?
  • Gain a comprehensive assessment of the proposed upgrades and modifications required to better equip current platforms and enable them to operate successfully against irregular forces; understand how this shift in procurement will lead to a greater boom in the refit market and the impact this will have on you
  • Learn about the latest developments in fixed wing light strike capability and purpose built platforms and how the multitude of operations in low tech environments are increasingly highlighting the overly technological platforms in use and why more cost effective platforms would prove equally effective. What will this mean for your company?
