The premier forum for maximising knowledge and understanding of survivability and protection for the dismounted soldier

Personal protection is a key area of development for the infantry at the moment , as new protective materials are constantly being developed, and infantry battle with the weight versus protection issues. As threats to dismounted Soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan are becoming more sophisticated and deadly, it is vital to provide the soldier with equipment that can effectively protect the individual, but be lightweight enough to enable the soldier to carry out his mission effectively . There will continue to be a battle with development of threats and the ability to mitigate this threat through defensive development.

Different operational circumstances demand different requirements from body armour and clothing, and this directly impacts the soldier survivability. We will be discussing the technology behind developments in body armour and protective clothing, and include all aspects from helmets and facial protection to load carriage and body armour for everything from expeditionary tasks to IED diffusion.

By relating these factors to the changing operational threat, and benefiting from lessons learned, this conference will be crucial for all manufacturers and users of defence clothing and basic operational commodities.
