Military flight training stands at a crossroads. The question isn’t whether to adopt AI, simulation, or data analytics, it’s whether our institutions can transform fast enough to maintain competitive advantage against adversaries who aren’t constrained by allied acquisition timelines or safety standards.
Defence iQ is excited to share the official programme for 25th Military Flight Training Conference 2026, taking place at a new location in Lucerne, Switzerland on 31st March – 2nd April.
