22 - 24 August 2011| Sheraton Hotel | Pretoria, South Africa

Dear Colleague,

22 - 24 August 2011| Sheraton Hotel | Pretoria, South Africa

South Africa is the home of survivability. For vehicle, turret and protection professionals, it is clear that exciting opportunities exist in this important market. Armoured vehicles are in increasing demand across the world. The proliferation of blast and ballistic threats over the past five years alone is clearly reflected in the evolving priorities of military organisations around the globe - including South Africa. The three crucial armoured vehicle procurement and upgrade programmes - Hoefystra, Sepula and Aorta are top priorities for the countrys defence force. Thats why Id like to invite you to a world first. Armoured Vehicles South Africa has the support of the South African National Defence Force and will, for the first time, allow international experts on armoured vehicles to gather in the home of survivability and learn from the South African Army, whilst sharing technology and platform expertise. With over 20 conference sessions and an audience of over 120 Armoured Vehicle and Turret experts, you cannot afford to miss this unparalleled event. We are exceptionally grateful for the participation of Lieutenant General Solly Shoke, Chief of the South African Army and indeed the commitment shown by all international speakers. Armoured Vehicles South Africa will welcome presentations from over ten countries including the UK MoD, US Army, Italian Army, French DGA and Army, Turkish MoD, German Army, Nigerian Army, Czech MoD, Polish MoD, Swedish FMV, Norwegian Army and Danish Army among others. The event will be exploring the strategic and operational questions of how to best equip land forces for Survivability, how best to ensure Turret Accuracy and Efficiency, and how best to ensure greater Through Life Cycle Support. The intimate but exceptionally high level exhibition area for Thought Leadership will also give you the opportunity to meet market leading industry solution providers. I am truly looking forward to participating in this unique event and I do hope you will join us this August in Pretoria, home of South Africas Government and Defence communities. Yours Sincerely,

Part of Defence IQs Armoured Vehicles series
