The adaptability of the modern military helicopter, its potential for multi-role and multi-mission deployment, and its ability to penetrate the most austere and hostile environments is testament to its enduring value to armies, air forces, navies and special forces, demonstrated by the increasing spending figures in new platforms, modernization of existing fleets, MRO and serviceability, and sophisticated payloads.
But such a diverse set of operations and roles presents the helicopter commander with a complex set of challenges that span technical, tactical and strategic dimensions. The 2017 International Military Helicopter conference will leverage the expertise and experience of its speakers, sponsors and visiting delegates to find answers to these critical questions.

Returning for its 16th year, we are pleased to invite you to join the largest, most internationally diverse conference for the global military rotorcraft community, with three days of debate and discussion with Chiefs of Staff, Commanders, Operators and Programme Managers

Experts From the Global Military Helicopter Community will Lead Discussions on:

• Recent acquisition and modernisation programmes to maintain the lifecycle of army, air force and naval aviation helicopter fleets
• Anti-submarine warfare and multirole helicopters - the challenges for managing multiple serviceability lifelines
• Tactical data link systems, BLoS communications and open architecture requirements to better integrate complex avionics systems
• Rotary strike, precision weapons and directed energy technology
• Training & Simulation - cost effective solutions for helicopter pilots and the challenges for maintaining a combat-ready helicopter force
• Next Generation technologies - from 3D printing and the future of MRO to manned-unmanned teaming and aerial refuelling
• Aircraft survivability and self-protection upgrades - how to better protect the helicopter pilot against a more sophisticated adversary stockpile

"I'm very pleased to see the diversity of military attendees at this event, and also the different elements from both the air forces and land forces, so it's a great opportunity for us to be in a diverse militarycustomer base."
