Past event: Armored Vehicles USA Conference

Welcome to Armored Vehicles USA

Delivering overmatch capabilities to the force requires advanced user friendly technology coupled with well-led, well-trained soldiers. Combat vehicle's lethality, mobility and protection and integration with ground forces provide critical advantages in defeating potential threats, combating insurgents and establishing security.

Critical discussions will take place on ensuring overmatch capabilities through advancing protection to increase sustainment and solider survivability, the ultimate combination of armor, mobility and lethality to occur and integrating interoperable platforms to support communications and situational awareness, requirements and training a globally responsive force.

Join us in Washington D.C. this March, to learn about where the future of armored vehicles is heading. This event will include expert speakers, informative workshops, and great sessions.
