Past event: Future Artillery Conference and Exhibition

Transforming Artillery for the Next Generation of Precision Strike

Throughout history artillery has been referred to as "The God of War" or "The King of Battle". The current and future importance of fire support cannot be over emphasized. Providing rapid suppression fires in order to neutralize the enemy so that ground forces can accomplish their mission remains ever necessary and a cornerstone of modern militaries. International efforts in artillery modernization are underway to advance precision, mobility, lethality.

IDGA’s Future Artillery Summit is located next to the home of the world’s most versatile Fires Force, seeks to deliver the latest information regarding agile and adaptive artillery, advancements in integrated and interoperable systems, and new capabilities for delivering accurate and responsive fires in any environment at any time. Highlighted at this event will be the many opportunities for development and growth in the global artillery industry.


We have to be much more precise on our fires, and that precision must be affordable

New market forecast study: Global Artillery and Systems - Market and Technology Forecast to 2027 Market forecasts by Region, by Platform, and by Component. Country analysis, Market Overview, Opportunity Analysis, and Leading Companies The cumulative market is expected to surpass USD 76 Billion during the forecast period 2019- 2027. The market is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 3.6%. The towed artillery accounts to more than 50% of the Global inventory, these are driven by the artillery inventories across countries in APAC, like Russia, China and India. It is interesting to note than Russia accounts to around 12% of the Global inventory, followed by China, which accounts to around 10% of the Global artillery inventory. However, US accounts to around 2.5% of the Global inventory. The increased focus on high technology platforms have acted as a key challenge in the US Artillery Market, it is good to understand that the Artillery platforms are included as one of the top priority areas within the US Defense, this would act as a driver during the study period.
