How are the Republic of Korea Armed Forces, Philippine Armed Forces, and Australian School of Artillery Driving Firepower Modernisation Programs?

25 May 2011 – Singapore & London

Defence IQ has just announced that speakers from the Republic of Korea's Armed Forces, Philippine Armed Forces, and Australian School of Artillery are presenting at Future Artillery Asia, taking place 6th-7th September at the Swissotel Merchant Court Hotel in Singapore.

With the imperative to develop cutting edge capabilities in precision munition, C-RAM, network communication infrastructure and intelligence, it is critical to hear how these nations are driving their firepower modernisation programs and where they are looking to invest their defence budgets. Countries such as India, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, and South Korea, aspire to implement brand new firepower programs, as recent artillery exchanges require long range firing systems and target detection tools.

Brigadier General Lim Sang Soo, Superintendent of the School of Artillery for the Republic of Korea Armed Forces, will be leading the opening keynote for the conference, addressing "Enhancing Artillery Range and Lethality." In addition to discussing the development of future doctrine and equipment capability to meet regional threats, he will be providing operational feedback into current systems such as the Samsung K9Thunder.

Colonel Pedro P. Biasbas, Commander, Army Artillery Regiment, Philippine Armed Forces, will also be speaking on how to extend artillery range and improve mobility. Whereas, Lieutenant Colonel Richard Vagg, Commanding Officer, Joint Land/Air Artillery Regiment, Australian School of Artillery, will target another critical issue for the Asian-Pacific artillery community: how to achieve a modern, fully digitized battlespace.

Other key speakers include:

- Colonel Ernesto Evangelista, Commander, Marine Field Artillery, Philippine Marine Corps
- Brigadier (ret’d) Gurmeet Kanwal, Director, Centre for Land Warfare Studies, Indian Ministry of Defence

Future Artillery Asia will provide insights into the specific conditions of the Asian-Pacific artillery market and generate discussions surrounding future strategies of firepower implementation on the battlefield. Additional information about the conference program is available at www.futureartilleryasia.com, along with articles, podcasts, and videos in the download centre.

Defence IQ invites Flag Officers 1 Star and above to attend the conference for free, by requesting a complimentary pass from Johanna Mikkela at defence@iqpc.co.uk.
The Defence IQ Future Artillery LinkedIn Group is open for membership at http://www.linkedin.com/groups.
