Defense in a More-for-Less World
June 11, 2021 | 10:00 EDT / 15:00 BST / 16:00 CEST | REGISTER
Defense budgets are beginning to level off, and yet potential threats posed by China’s rising power in the Pacific and Russian muscle-flexing in Eastern Europe are not abating. In that context, the U.S. and European nations are faced with how they can modernize quickly and effectively without breaking the bank.
Aviation Week editors will discuss how militaries are expected to emphasize research toward the development of emerging technologies that will set them apart and aim to shed older platforms with large sustainment bills.

In the shadow of China’s expanding military power, nations across Asia are adding muscularity to their defenses and building a defense industrial base with strong overseas partnerships.
In this webinar, the panelists consider several in-development programs that place a premium on value, including Korean Aerospace Industries KF-X 4.5 generation fighter, KAI’s KUH-1 Surion helicopter, and the Royal Australian Air Force’s program to develop an Airpower Teaming System UAS with Boeing.
