SMi Reports: The agenda has now been released for the inaugural Future Armoured Vehicles Power Systems Conference, taking place in London, this September

As the shift from traditional power packs towards alternative means of vehicle propulsion accelerates, and armed forces around the world begin to embrace innovative solutions to armoured vehicle mobility, powertrain and power management considerations have never been so important.


SMi Group proudly presents the newest addition to Armoured Vehicles events portfolio: Future Armoured Vehicles Power Systems 2020, taking place on the 23rd -24th September 2020 at the Copthorne Tara Hotel in London, UK.

For those interested in attending, there is a £600 Early Bird discount available until Thursday 30th April 2020. Register at http://www.fav-powersystems.com/robtommPR1

The two-day agenda will explore how technological advances will enhance overall performance for future armoured vehicles, as platform electrification moves closer to reality, and software developments allow for superior survivability, mobility and situational awareness capabilities.
