- (1888PressRelease) March 01, 2018 - SMi Group presents the 4th annual Close Air Support (CAS) conference, taking place in London on the 6th and 7th June 2018.

Speakers will be discussing the latest technology and strategic developments, as well as mission updates from real-time operations.

The conference will give an exclusive focus on CAS operations in an increasingly demanding environment, with emphasis on joint fire and air-land integration, platforms and avionics, targeting and delivery, DACAS, C2 and JTAC Training.
