supported by EU and NATO

It is our pleasure to invite you to the 2nd Air-to-Air Refuelling (AAR) Conference in Europe, co-organised by the European Defence Agency (EDA) and NATO, which will be held on 17 October in Brussels.

It will bring together key decision-makers from the EU and NATO as well as the wider transatlantic and international AAR community, including industry, to discuss current and future challenges and coordinate efforts in this important domain. The global dimension of the solutions at hand to resolve remaining shortfalls and the role of industry will also be debated.

Scheduled speakers include, among many others, the Netherlands Minister of defense, the Chairman of the Aerial Refuelling Systems Advisory Group (ARSAG), General John Sams, NATO’s Assistant Secretary General for Defence Investment, Camille Grand and the Chief Executive of EDA, Jorge Domecq. A draft agenda (subject to change) is attached.
