We're Having a Lot of Targeted Conversations with Real Key 6 “We’re having a lot of targeted conversations with real key decision- makers, instead of just having a very broad industry discussion. It’s been a great conference” Textron Systems, Lead Partner, International Armoured Vehicles 2016 AV Prospectus 2016.indd 1 19/01/2016 09:21 Global Market Overview Transnational security threats, sustained conflict in the Middle East and simmering disputes in South East Asia mean international relations across the globe remain frosty for some, volatile for others. Unconventional, irregular and hybrid warfare carried out by both state and non-state actors continues to be a critical feature of current and potential operating scenarios faced by armies around the world. Of course, Russia’s annexation of Crimea was shockingly effective and demonstrated the renewed need for NATO to be able to move Armour in volume and at speed across Europe to meet future threats; Cold War logistics books are being dusted off. Across swathes of Syria and Iraq, Daesh have continued to consolidate their hold with many anticipating they will remain influential in the region for years to come. The credible threat of being able to deploy significant capability at speed is often sufficient deterrence to render the actual use of force unnecessary. However, to stabilise and ultimately resolve such issues can come the need for ‘boots on the ground’; firepower, mobility, protection and information networks. This almost certainly means joint force deployment and in particular a combination of aerial platforms, armoured vehicles, and special forces. The outlook for the armoured vehicles market is more compelling than it has been since the 2008 economic downturn triggered widespread anxiety and the post-Iraq hangover that resulted in sluggish demand and supply. Defence budgets worldwide are fluctuating. Continued insecurity has led many NATO states to reevaluate their decisions to slash costs, resulting in renewed expenditure throughout central and eastern Europe, while procurements in the UK, Germany, France, and Denmark have been taking large strides. Meanwhile, the U.S. has finally settled on the supplier of its biggest armoured vehicle programme (JLTV), Asian nations have become increasingly alert to new vehicle technologies, and Africa’s spending – and manufacturing – spike is of keen interest to the global market. Meanwhile, Latin America has seen relatively little change thanks to mixed fiscal fortunes among the established and emerging players. Overall, for the first time in years, the armoured vehicles market is showing signs of widespread confidence. AV Prospectus 2016.indd 2 19/01/2016 09:21 Why Partner with Defence IQ’s Armoured Vehicles Portfolio Defence IQ prides itself on offering international professionals the rare opportunity to meet the right people responsible for major programmes within the growing global armoured vehicles community. The longest running and most prestigious series of armoured vehicle events started with Light Armoured Vehicles in 2001. This portfolio has followed and helped shape the debate from light armour to medium armour, from tracks to wheels, from lethality to mobility to survivability. Now in its 16th year, International Armoured Vehicles is the sector leader. The armoured vehicles sector is vast and includes numerous different mission sets and requirements. That’s why we have consulted our military and industry advisory boards to offer a distinct portfolio of regional- specific events, with Armoured Vehicles Latin America, Armoured Vehicles Africa, Armoured Vehicles Eastern Europe and Armoured Vehicles Asia. Our portfolio has also focused on specific key nations with Armoured Vehicles Turkey, Armoured Vehicles India, Armoured Vehicles UAE and Armoured Vehicles Brazil. We’ve enjoyed formal endorsements over the years from SSM in Turkey, UAE Land Forces, the Royal Wessex Yeomanry in the British Army, Nigerian Army and the Ukrainian Army. By concentrating on specific subjects at each event, we ensure that “It’s always good the military and governmental representatives in attendance are the to get our suppliers decision makers for that specific area.

  • The Botswana Defence Force and Public Trust: the Military Dilemma in a Democracy
    The Botswana Defence Force and public trust: The military dilemma in a democracy Lekoko Kenosi Introduction The level of trust that citizens have in their armed forces is paramount to good civil–military relations. In a democracy, it is the responsibility of the armed forces to gain public confidence, because a military that is not trusted by the population lacks legitimacy and will have difficulties justifying its expenses and even its existence. Botswana is the oldest democracy in Africa. A look at the Botswana Defence Force (BDF) takes one into the journey of civil–military relations. Botswana has never been through a conventional war, whereas all her neighbours have been involved in some form of war. Zimbabwe went through the war of liber- ation, Namibia had an armed struggle for independence and South Africans fought a lengthy guerrilla war to claim their freedom. Although beyond her borders, these conflicts have had a major impact on civil–military dynamics in Botswana. The political volatility of Southern Africa has had a direct effect on the trust the nation has needed to place in the BDF. The interaction between the BDF and civil society is of great interest to soldiers and broader society. The Batswana attach a high price to the behaviour of their institutions, including the armed forces and the conduct of the BDF—both in peacetime and in times of conflict—is always a matter of public interest. Experience in Africa has taught us that an irresponsible military can pro- duce untold suffering. The often healthy but inherently suspicious relation- ship between the military and civil institutions calls for constant dialogue.

  • How to Become a Military Officer in the Spanish Armed Forces: Since
    SPAIN How to Become a Military Officer in the Spanish Armed Forces: Since 2010, Spain and its basic officers’ education institutions have implemented the acquis of the Bologna Process and, therefore, are fully integrated into the European Higher Education Area. Nevertheless, this implementation did not impede the academies of the Spanish armed forces to adapt the design of their education and training to the respective specificities and requirements of the four services of the armed forces, i.e. the Army, the Navy, the Air Force and the Gendarmerie (Guardia Civil). The duration of the academic studies is different from one branch to another: 4 years for Army, 5 for Navy, Air Force and Gendarmerie. In Army education, however, an additional year, which is fully dedicated to the vocational training at the Academy, is necessary in order to complete the basic education. Different organisations of the studies, therefore, but a common goal, which is a specificity of the Spanish military education systems: all future officers of the four branches will be both bachelor-graduated and awarded a diploma of engineer. Spanish basic officer’s education particularly stresses the role of technical sciences in the academic learning processes, indeed. To this end, the central role played by the academies in the education and training is completed by the important support provided by the civilian higher education institutions through partnerships in the academic curricula. One must also note that the scheme presented above only summarizes the path for becoming an officer in the four branches of the armed forces through direct recruitment. It is important in the sense that, in the case of Gendarmerie for example, officers issued from internal (indirect recruitment) must follow a specific basic course in a different academy (in San Lorenzo del Escorial).

  • The Spanish Civil War (1936–39)
    12 CIVIL WAR CASE STUDY 1: THE SPANISH CIVIL WAR (1936–39) ‘A civil war is not a war but a sickness,’ wrote Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. ‘The enemy is within. One fights almost against oneself.’ Yet Spain’s tragedy in 1936 was even greater. It had become enmeshed in the international civil war, which started in earnest with the Bolshevik revolution. From Antony Beevor, The Battle for Spain: The Spanish Civil War 1936–1939 , 2006 The Spanish Civil War broke out in 1936 after more than a century of social, economic and political division. Half a million people died in this conflict between 1936 and 1939. As you read through this chapter, consider the following essay questions: Ģ Why did a civil war break out in Spain in 1936? Ģ How significant was the impact of foreign involvement on the outcome of the Spanish Civil War? General Francisco Franco, the Ģ What were the key effects of the Spanish Civil War? leader who took Nationalist forces to victory in the Spanish Civil War. Timeline of events – 1820–1931 1820 The Spanish Army, supported by liberals, overthrows the absolute monarchy and makes Spain a constitutional monarchy in a modernizing revolution 1821 Absolute monarchy is restored to Spain by French forces in an attempt to reinstate the old order 1833 In an attempt to prevent a female succession following the death of King Ferdinand, there is a revolt by ‘Carlists’. The army intervenes to defeat the Carlists, who nevertheless remain a strong conservative force in Spanish politics (see Interesting Facts box) 1833–69 The army’s influence in national politics increases during the ‘rule of the Queens’ 1869–70 Anarchist revolts take place against the state 1870–71 The monarchy is overthrown and the First Republic is established 1871 The army restores a constitutional monarchy 1875–1918 During this period the constitutional monarchy allows for democratic elections.
