Military Airlift 2016

Defence IQ is delighted to announce that our 13th annual Military Airlift conference will be taking place in London, 20 – 22 September 2016. The airlift community is gathering once again to learn, share and connect at one of our most crucially timed summits in recent history. Over the next 10 years, more than 800 new military airlifters are set to be delivered at a value of $65 Billion.

It is essential that international and multinational airlift organisations discuss solutions, ideas and expertise so that joint readiness, interoperability and airlift capacity is maximised for what are currently unclear future mission requirements.

Featuring comprehensive discussions on how militaries, multi-national organisations and NGO’s are best able to incorporate air-chartering, joint procurement, MRO, air-to-air refuelling and pooling and sharing to improve operational airlift capability.

Speakers will also be sharing perspectives on tactical and strategic airlift capability, logistics, cost-efficiency, multi-role capabilities, humanitarian and national disaster management, and transforming business relationships.

Finally, for the first time we are also excited to announce an exclusive workshop exploring how lighter-than-air cargo solutions are able to beat the anti-access strategies employed by adversaries and deliver for your logistics chain. Please look out for LAUNCHING A NEW CENTURY OF AVIATION INNOVATION which will be delivered by innovators Worldwide Aeros.
