Defense in a More-for-Less World 

June 11, 2021 | 10:00 EDT / 15:00 BST / 16:00 CEST REGISTER

 

Defense budgets are beginning to level off, and yet potential threats posed by China’s rising power in the Pacific and Russian muscle-flexing in Eastern Europe are not abating. In that context, the U.S. and European nations are faced with how they can modernize quickly and effectively without breaking the bank.

 

Aviation Week editors will discuss how militaries are expected to emphasize research toward the development of emerging technologies that will set them apart and aim to shed older platforms with large sustainment bills.
