DSTL Analysis of Equipment Support: Vehicle Support Assessment Study

The Middle East region has witnessed a rise in the procurement and development of armoured vehicles. Rapidly changing and emerging threats in the current operating climate have facilitated the demand to further develop platform capabilities and invest in weapon system upgrades. It is thus critical to balance vehicle specifications in order for Land Forces to combat contemporary threats, such as IED networks and asymmetric terrain. As crew and vehicle survivability are top priorities for international and regional Land Forces, it is essential to balance relevant capabilities for future operational success.

Armoured Vehicles Middle East 2009 is an exclusive forum for Land Forces, Ministries of Defence and International Defence Agencies to discuss the latest challenges and strategies for balancing vehicle design.
