The Modernisation of Future Mortar Systems

We are excited to announce the return of the 12th annual Future Mortar Systems conference. The world’s only event of its kind, exploring developments of mortar technology that align with military demand. 

The mortar systems market size is expected to hit USD 3.5 billion by 2030. This statistic is directly correlated to demand for mortar system modernisation of technology, improvements in manufacturing and enhanced deployment scope of military units.

The war in Ukraine and rising geopolitical tensions in other regions, are driving the demand for mortar systems. It is vital that modernisation efforts by NATO nations are strategically aligned in the transformation towards lightweight manoeuvrability, in today's dispersed battlefield. 


New for 2024:


    • Exclusive industry announcement by Patria on innovation in traditional mortar technology
    • Latest requirements update on UK BOXER programme 
    • Insights into Canada’s Indirect Fires Modernization Project
    • More NATO and allied nations in attendance than previously before, including UK, US, Canada, Netherlands, Italy, Lithuania, Finland, Turkey, Switzerland, France, and Norway   

The Future Mortar Systems conference serves as an excellent platform for the exchange of knowledge, collaboration, and the exploration of groundbreaking developments in the field of mortar systems. This two-day event will bring together leading experts, innovators, and industry professionals from around the world.

Join us as we address the themes of ‘technology’, ‘survivability’, and ‘manoeuvrability’ in the modernisation of future mortar systems.
