Date: 23-Oct-19 to 24-Oct-19
Location: United Kingdom
In the complex and ever-changing strategic landscape, the demand for increased situational awareness continues to grow.

20th Annual Military Airlift and Air-to-Air Refuelling Conference

Date: 03-Dec-19 to 04-Dec-19

As strategic and heavy airlift continues to drive expeditionary capability – the market capitalisation of this mission critical sector continues to grow.

With the Airbus A400M programme developing within Europe at pace, Lockheed expanding their market capitalisation within the US through the C-5 and C-17, and Embraer breaking into the sector with a new joint venture to challenge the traditional players – this is a critical time in the industry.
