Upcoming Events

For 20 years, Defense & Security has been an important biennial as ASEAN’s Leading Tri-Service defence and internal security event, in Bangkok, Thailand. When Defense staged its first Tri-Service for Land, Sea, and Air in Bangkok in 2003 not many countries or international manufacturers paid much attention. The addition of the Internal Security section was added to the profile in 2007 and the event was soon on a path to become one of the region’s most important and dynamic exhibitions and could no longer be ignored.

The International Defence Industry Exhibition is one of the globe’s most prominent and significant defence industry events.

For years, MSPO has also been the place to establish important relations and thus enhance global defence, safety and security. The expo meetings have often culminated in signing of multi-million PLN contracts.

In addition, MSPO has advanced to be the venue for premiere presentations of the latest technologies. And much more – the show is also the knowledge-exchange platform. The Republic of Poland’s Armed Forces Exhibition has been an indispensable part of the expo agenda. The Ministry of National Defence and the Polish Armaments Group have co-created the International Defence Industry Exhibition’s success.

The trade show hosts heads of state, official delegations from ministries of defence, senior army staff and embassies’ representatives from dozens of countries. The best products win the President of the Republic of Poland’s accolades. The head of state has traditionally offered his auspices to the exhibition.

MSPO is accompanied by a plethora of conferences, seminars and business-insiders meetings. The military and defence expo’s scope is complemented with the simultaneously-held International Logistics Fair LOGISTYKA.

SAE Media Group is delighted to announce its 16th annual Defence Exports conference, which will convene in September 2022.

SAE Media Group is proud to present the Future Armoured Vehicles Power Systems 2022 conference, convening on the 19th and 20th September 2022 in London.

With the rate of technological innovations and applications only growing, power management considerations for the armoured vehicles of the future remains a vital component in maintaining the operational capacity of the world’s armed forces. Power systems underpin a vast swathe of performance measures for armoured vehicles, both mechanically and electronically.

Initially, this can manifest through enhancing powertrains to maintain the efficiency and manoeuvrability of vehicles that are often considerably heavier than when designs were made, through improving current performance or developing new hardware. Further to this, the auxiliary electrical requirements of vehicles that resemble command and control hubs is significant. The development and integration of advanced C4I systems, to guarantee situational awareness in degraded environments, the application of power-hungry active protection systems to overcome the physical limits to traditional armour, and the future of Directed Energy Weapons, are all highly power-sensitive systems that offer a significant strain to traditional architectures.

As the only conference of its kind, Future Armoured Vehicles Power Systems, will provide unique briefings on the efforts being made to enhance current armoured vehicle performance, as well as an exploration of the developments and innovations being made in an effort to guarantee the long-term effectiveness of future forces. Briefings will include insights into vehicle architecture, powertrain considerations and developments, the electrification of future platforms, and the methods being employed that will power the system of systems required for operational excellence.

The SAE Media Group is delighted to announce the 7th annual UAV Technology conference, taking place on the 26th and 27th September 2022.

Uncrewed aerial systems have become one of the most researched and pursued military technologies from the past decade and the market for drones and UAVs has grown exponentially. Their capabilities have advanced with the shifting of operational requirements, whether it be with ISR assets for long range reconnaissance missions, soldier-born battlefield awareness mini UAS or for remotely piloted combat drones for precision strikes. Demand for these indispensable capabilities has led to further development of their technical abilities.

UAVs are paving the way for the future of aerial warfare and this year’s conference is where you can witness it all happen. UAV Technology 2022 is the leading international forum dedicated towards the development of uncrewed aerial systems, allowing for essential dialogue between military, industry and academia.

The conference will include presentations ranging from multi-national UAV development programmes, certification and regulation, Counter UAS/UAV technology, Stealth technology, the latest in drone R&D and future force design using these hi-tech military assets. We at SAE Media Group, look forward to welcoming the global UAV community to this leading conference to maintain dialogue, share ground-breaking ideas and furthering the concept of modern warfare.
