UNDER THE AUSPICES OF THE CZECH AIR FORCE COMMANDER

Czech Air Force

The Future Air Force Conference - New Generation Aircraft is organised under the auspices of the Czech Air Force Commander MG Petr MIKULENKA.

PREAMBLE

The Czech Air Force is due to replace its current fleet of the JAS-39 Gripen soon. This constitutes a similar challenge as was the replacement of the Soviet-made MIG aircraft 20 years ago. However, exponential technological development and unpredictability of current and future battlefield make this task increasingly difficult and ever-more complex. This complexity is, for example, well reflected in terminology as we now use the term Air Combat System, rather than aircraft.
 
The aim of the Future Air Force Panel – New Generation Aircraft is to address some of these complexities and challenges by focusing in particular on the following areas:
 
  • Future Security environment and the role of the NATO Air power within it
  • The Czech approach towards Future Air Combat System (FACS)
  • Integration of the Czech Future Air Combat System into the NATO multidomain operations
  • Future education and training
  • Role of the Czech defence, security and academic sectors in supporting the Future Air Combat System

PRELIMINARY PROGRAM

The Future Air Force Panel – New Generation Aircraft will be organized in two separated blocks, but with interconnected topics.

SECOND BLOCK, 20 October 2022

 
PVA EXPO Prague within the Future Forces Exhibition & Forum 2022
Given the complexity of the Future Air Combat System, the fast technological development and the increasing number of stakeholders needed for successful acquisition and operation of such system, collaboration among traditional and non traditional partners is a must. Industry, academia, users and government officials must work together to achieve best results.
 
The second block will focus on training of Air Force personnel and the role of the national defence industry within FACS integration.
 
Morning Panel
Are the Czech defence, security, and academic sectors ready to participate on the development of the future Air Force capabilities?
Afternoon Panel
Education and Training – What and how need to be changed to prepare the future warriors?
Networking and Informal Discussion
Afternoon snack and wine tasting
