Full Spectrum Air Defence is a high-level international event focused on integrated air and missile defence (IAMD) across the full threat spectrum. The conference addresses challenges posed by ballistic and cruise missiles, hypersonic weapons, unmanned aerial systems (UAS), loitering munitions, and saturation attacks.

The agenda typically covers:

• Multi-layered and integrated air defence architectures
• Advanced radar, sensor fusion, and command & control systems
• Counter-UAS (c-UAS) solutions
• Directed energy and next-generation interceptor technologies
• Interoperability and joint operations among allied forces

The event provides a strategic platform for operational insight, technology exchange, and international cooperation between armed forces and the defence industry.

Sectors of Participating Companies

Companies and institutions attending the event mainly operate in the following sectors:

• Air and Missile Defence Systems
• Radar and Sensor Technologies
• Command, Control, Communications & Software (C4I)
• Counter-UAS and Unmanned Systems
• Directed Energy and Laser Weapon Systems
• Defence Electronics and Systems Integration
• Military Consultancy and Strategic Analysis

Importance for the Defence Industry

Full Spectrum Air Defence is critically important for the defence industry because it:

• Addresses evolving aerial threats such as drones, hypersonic missiles, and precision-guided munitions
• Supports the development of layered and network-centric air defence concepts
• Strengthens cooperation between NATO members and partner nations
• Showcases emerging technologies in radar, interceptors, and energy-based weapons

The conference plays a key role in shaping future procurement strategies and operational doctrines in air defence.
