Armoured Vehicles Asia Conference 2015

Terrex 8x8 AIFVs

Taking place in Jakarta, Indonesia in partnership with PT Pindad, the Armoured Vehicles Asia conference invites you to join regional military officials and manufacturing partners at a series of lectures, round table discussions and working groups designed to strengthen existing and to create new international partnerships for armoured vehicle stakeholders.

If you are active in the region or looking for that first project to contribute your solution to, this forum will provide you with access to the information and contacts that you need to deliver your offering.

 Why Indonesia? 

Indonesia has increased its defense budget over the past 5 years from $3.2 billion in 2007 to $8.1 billion in 2013
Indonesia is in the throes of a rapid transformation, swept along by its position at the heart of the world’s most dynamic economic region
The country has recorded one of the most consistent growth rates among global economies during the past decade with nearly 6 percent annual GDP growth (McKinsey SEA Report)

 Indonesia and Armoured Vehicles 

Indonesia plans to buy 420 Terrex 8x8 AIFVs under license from Singapore’s ST Kinetics. In November it finalised a deal to procure 102 modernised Leopard 2 MBTs, 42 upgraded Marder 1A3 IFVs and 11 armoured recovery vehicles from Rheinmetall in a €216m ($290m) deal, which includes logistical support. The deal makes Indonesia the 18th nation operating the Leopard 2. Indonesia’s locally-built armoured personnel carrier, the 6x6 Anoa, has had a number of export enquiries since it was produced in 2009 from Malaysia, Iraq, Nepal, Oman and Bangladesh

 Asia Driving Global Armoured Vehicle Market Growth 

There is an arms race taking place in Asia. China’s defence budget has increased eightfold in the last 20 years and now many other countries in the region are looking to catch up. Both Vietnam and Cambodia have more than doubled their military spend over the last decade and other regional powers, including Japan, Philippines and Malaysia are following suit.

According to SIPRI data, the top five arms importers in the world are all based in Asia – India, China, Pakistan, South Korea and Singapore. India recently overtook China as the top arms importer after Beijing invested in its indigenous defence industry to lessen reliance on foreign deals. India is hoping to mirror China’s success in this area as it seeks to bolster its defence infrastructure and award contracts to Indian firms.

Some analysts predict that the global armoured vehicle and counter IED market will decline over the next decade, with traditional markets in the West taking the brunt of the collateral. However, while the global market is set to wane, demand in Asia will actually increase during the period. ICD Research forecasts that the market in Asia will be worth $5.4bn in 2021, up from $4.4bn in 2011. The vast majority of this will likely be spent on tactical trucks, main battle tanks (MBTs) and armoured personnel carriers (APCs)

Countries in the region such as Thailand, Singapore, Pakistan, India and South Korea face threats from insurgent groups, further increasing the requirement for armoured vehicles and other military equipment.

The 8th annual Armoured Vehicles Asia conference will create a high-level platform to address these challenges, including:


Armour requirements and procurement processes
Enhancing Survivability and Protection
Improving Vehicle Mobility and Firepower
Integrating C4I Networks and Systems into Armoured Vehicles
Capability development for armoured vehicles to improve overall mission effectiveness
Providing operational case studies and experiences of armoured vehicles in battlefield operations

Armoured Vehicles Asia 2015 is part of our highly successful International Armoured Vehicles Series, dedicated and specially contextualised to the region. Our event offers the perfect platform for high-level, senior key decision makers from the military to interact and meet with international counterparts and industry stakeholders.
