Product Code: R215-422Description Following the huge success of last year's event, we are delighted to offer you the opportunity to attend Global MilSatCom 2006 - the largest independent military satellite communications conference in Europe.
Satellite communications will play a large part in future force transformation as every force seeks effective joint C4ISTAR and Network Centric/Enabled Capability. With the increased role of commercial satellites in enabling this capability and the introduction of innovative financial partnerships to acquire the necessary platforms/infrastructures, effective SatCom capability has now become viable for the majority of defence forces world-wide.
Now in its 8th year Global MilSatCom will evaluate specific doctrines, identify new requirements, and present the latest developments from the leading international case studies on procurement strategies and the operational deployment of specific programmes.
Other topics to be covered include future MilSatCom applications, new & future technologies, government-industry co-operation, interoperability, 'on the move' capability, COTS, legacy systems & platforms and the latest commercial opportunities within the MilSatCom marketplace.
