MilSatCom Asia-Pacific: SatCom Capabilities in APAC to be discussed by US Air Force, Australian Defence Force, MoD Malaysia, New Zealand Defence Force
SMi Group reports: Registration is now open for SMi's 6th annual MilSatCom Asia-Pacific conference which will take place on the 26th and 27th May 2016 in Singapore.
- (1888PressRelease) February 19, 2016 - Space is becoming more apart of modern and political warfare and the current climate is rapidly evolving in Asia-Pacific. Japan have recently changed their overall defence policy and space will be a key component for national security and the likes of Malaysia and India are developing their national space programmes.
With all the changes taking place, this year's conference will provide delegates with national updates on space and MilSatCom programmes and how the development of these programmes is satisfying current critical regional requirements.
MilSatCom Asia-Pacific will prove to be a critical conference that will allow for greater regional collaboration to both combat external threats but also enhance disaster response with effective use of regional space assets.
