|
 |
| In 2008-2009 India will spend over $26 billion on defence, focusing on upgrading and modernizing its existing capabilities to create one of the most advanced armies in the world. Through programmes dedicated to enhancing the equipment and capabilities of the dismounted soldier including F-INSAS (Future Integrated Soldier As A System), BMS (Battlefield Management System), BSS (Battlefield Surveillance System) and CIDSS (Command Information Decision Support System) the Indian Army aims to deploy soldiers with the best equipment to counter militant insurgency. In addition, through strategic investment in paramilitary and police force equipment modernization and training, India aims to rapidly improve border security.
With so much investment and an emphasis on self-reliance managed through the offset regime, India’s future defence capabilities depend on the ability of indigenous equipment manufacturers of all sizes to build strong relationships with international defence contractors and system integrators. But with changing infantry requirements and challenging defence procurement procedures this is no easy task. Soldier Technology India is the first international conference and exhibition dedicated to enhancing the capabilities of India’s dismounted forces through closer collaboration with the global soldier modernization community. With experience organising the two biggest soldier modernization conferences – Soldier Technology Global and Soldier Technology US – Soldier Technology India will be the key forum in Asia to hear from and meet top military, police and industry figures overseeing the most important modernisation programmes of India’s dismounted forces. |
