(1888PressRelease) July 07, 2020 - There has never been a more important time to explore the latest technology, trends and developments in unmanned aerial systems. SMi Group’s UAV Technology conference will return to London, UK, on the 28th – 29th of ¬September 2020.

In recent news, ‘Greece’s Hellenic Ministry of National Defense will lease unmanned aerial vehicles from Israel’ (Source: Defense News). The Hellenic Ministry of National Defense will be leasing the Heron UAV manufactured by IAI and will be a more cost-efficient move for Greece as they also have the option to purchase the Herons after three years. The Herons will include unique maritime configuration with sensors and communications designed to monitor the extensive water borders of Greece, where border control is now a crucial matter due to the coronavirus pandemic.

With that said, SMi Group confirm that the Hellenic Ministry of National Defense will be in attendance for the 5th annual UAV Technology meeting on the 28th – 29th September 2020 in London. The two-day conference will enable NATO-allied nations to exchange expertise and align their visions for the future. Delegates will gain valuable insight on key topics regarding UAV developments such as world-leading international programmes, regulation, counter-UAS technology, cutting-edge R&D and so much more!
