Drawing on their extensive experience in the test and evaluation domain, Ordinance Test Solutions Ltd shall lead a general forum on the application of trials and evaluation in future armoured vehicle procurement, from development through to acceptance into service.

Workshop Leader

David was initially a researcher at the UK Defence Academy, becoming a lecturer in ballistics for over 20 years. During that time David was also an advisor to the UK MOD Directorate for Light Weapons Procurement, and sat on UK committees for weapon proof and ammunition procurement, was a member of the UK Future Small Arms Programme, and he represented the UK on various NATO committees. David also supported ballistic research for MOD and commercial development. His support of trials analysis lead to him becoming one of the founders of Ordnance Test Solutions Ltd, which facilitates Trials & Evaluation services to the defence community, notably supporting national and international armoured fighting vehicle, cannon and large calibre weapon programmes. He is the author of computer codes for internal & external ballistics, fragmentation arena trial assessment and lethality, and devised the CPA (critical penetration analysis). His scientific papers in ballistics also include gun proof statistics, detonics and magneto-hydrodynamics. Additionally, David is the inventor of the textile armour now known as Tarian and deployed on UK and Danish armoured vehicles.

Dear Colleague, It is with great pleasure that I invite you to participate in Future armoured Vehicles Weapons Systems, taking place from the 28th to the 29th of June, 2016, London.

Building on the success of our recent survivability event, Future Armoured Vehicles now aims to deliberate the key requirements for enhancing armoured vehicle combat effectiveness and lethality.

Therefore, the aim of our forthcoming conference is to discuss how best to advance capability in this important area, providing a forum for armoured vehicle operators, weapon systems experts, respected research institutions, and leading industry to meet and consider proactive solutions.

I would ask you to pay particular attention to our conference agenda, which has been put together with great care to ensure the very best opportunities to benchmark and learn from subject matter experts, discussing and explaining the technologies and operational doctrine central to the combat effectiveness of the armoured vehicle.

Only by sharing ideas through the medium of networking can we develop and enhance our approach and solutions to military requirements. I urge you to join us in June 2016, alongside an array of likeminded individuals to ensure that you too can benefit from this unique forum. Yours Sincerely, Brigadier general (ret) Simon Deakin,

Former Director of Force Development, British army
