Equipping the Warfighter With The Next Generation of Offensive Capabilities
DefenceIQ is delighted to announce the return of its 5th annual Infantry Weapons conference. Building on the success of our previous events, the event will continue to provide a holistic approach to developments in the field of infantry weapons, addressing advances in both small arms and support systems.
At Infantry Weapons 2011, You Will:
- Hear about the latest developments around infantry-issued airburst weapon systems such as the US XM25 and the Korean K11, including information on the testing, deployment and planned future developments for ammunition and fire control systems
- Discover how the Canadian Small Arms Modernisation Project and the British Soldier System Lethality Office are aiming to deliver networking integrated direct fire capabilities to its soldiers, and how caseless ammunition will play a fundamental part in these next generation weapon systems
- Updates into European procurement and modernisation programmes, including the Croatian transition from 7.62x39mm to 5.56 NATO ammunition in their current trial rifle
- Learn how US Special Operations Command SOF are utilising switch calibre weapons platforms to improve soldier flexibility and adapt one single system to multiple mission sets
- Assess the latest developments in the US Marine Corps’ attempt to replace its inventory of M249 light machine guns with the new M27 infantry automatic rifle, and apply this feedback to your modernisation programmes
