Ground Combat Vehicles
Delivering Vehicle Survivability & Lethality Requirements for Contemporary Forces
September 15 - 17, 2008 · The Westin Grand, Berlin, Germany
Army engagements remain a daily challenge for nations worldwide; ensuring that requirements are fulfilled for Ground Combat Vehicles is a battle.
How can you provide and maintain the required capability for Army’s Ground Combat Vehicles fleet and guarantee the safety of troops at an affordable cost?
Following two very successful conferences in Prague, Ground Combat Vehicles 2008 is moving to Berlin to ensure we deliver a truly international conference.
Join us in September at our established forum to position yourself among some of the world’s leading practitioners and strategic decision makers. Learn first-hand from global forces as they establish current national procurement strategies, operational feedback and future requirements.
While the need for light and medium armoured vehicles is well documented, the need for a versatile and durable light tactical vehicle or an upgraded and maintainable Main Battle Tank mustn’t be ignored. By combing all three-vehicle types, today’s Armed Forces will be better prepared to face the tasks and perils of 21st century combat.
