Key Host-Nation Decision-Makers to Present on the Latest Innovation in Armoured Vehicle Propulsion at Future Armoured Vehicles Power Systems 2021 in London

SMi Group reports: The British Army, DSTL, UK MoD and leading UK industry are set to present at the Future Armoured Vehicles Power Systems conference in September.

London, United Kingdom, June 13, 2021 --(PR.com)-- Just last year, the British Army started trialling hybrid-electric drive systems on the Foxhound and Jackal 2 vehicles. The hybrid technology offers improved power capabilities for both onboard and offboard systems, improves sustainability and offers military advantages through reducing the noise signature of the vehicles.

Moving towards hybrid technology is seen as a step to reducing the Ministry of Defence’s (MOD) reliance on fossil fuels as it looks to meet the UK Government’s target of net-zero emissions by 2050.*

SMi Group is delighted to announce key host-nation decision-makers representing the British Army, DSTL, UK MoD and UK industry, will be giving in-depth briefings on the latest innovation in armoured vehicle propulsion at Future Armoured Vehicles Power Systems, taking place in London on 20th and 21st September 2021.

For those interested in attending, there is £100 early bird discount available until 30th June 2021. Register online at http://www.fav-powersystems.com/pr2

- Lieutenant General Richard Nugee, Climate Change and Sustainability Strategy Lead, UK MoD will present “Optimising Strategic Objectives to Make UK Armoured Vehicles More Environmentally Friendly and Sustainable”
