Conference Information
During Our Second Annual Conference, we intend to draw a picture about the current Geostrategic Military Situation for Euro-Atlantic Partners. This will lead us to discuss about the new era of Threats for the Euro Atlantic area, focusing mainly on Hypersonic Weapons and Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) developments, about the way NATO will meet today’s and tomorrow’s IAMD challenges and how improvements of offensive capabilities
will be a visible and valuable tool for the NATO Deterrence and Defense Posture.
