The landscape of defence satellite communications is changing rapidly on both sides of the Atlantic - with the announcement of a new US Air Force Space Command and conclusion of the Wideband AoA, the addition of new enduring capability for Skynet 6 and a new era of LEO mega-constellations set to provide new COMSATCOM bandwidth for military partners.
It is in this is the context that SMi Group is hosting the 20th annual Global MilSatCom conference and exhibition – taking place in London from the 6-8 November 2018 at the QEII Conference Centre.
With over 500 attendees it is a key calendar date for satellite professionals across the alliance. Broken into three dedicated days of content, the meeting sets out to cover mission critical updates from national programmes from the US, Europe and the wider international community.
