Defence iQ remains at the forefront of the Artillery discussion with its Future Artillery conferences, where we invite the top experts and decision-makers in government, industry, and academia from across the globe.

The 2024 conference provided speakers with the opportunity to present the latest programmes, technologies, and thoughts. It also provided an intimate environment for invaluable one-to-ones with our delegates and sponsors. With our 2024 Post-Show Report, we highlight some of our successes while also showing how we are going to push the topic even further.

At a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 4.2%, combined with an increasingly complex battlefield, demands for artillery platforms are not only increasing in quantity but changing in nature. As forces shift to near-peer deterrence, new mobility, targeting, range, networking, and lethality capabilities are required. This report covers the artillery sector's most critical programmes, spending, and forecasts. This report covers programmes related to:

• Gun/Tube artillery
• Rocket Artillery
• Precision Ammunition
• Loitering Munitions
• Target Acquisition Technologies such as AI
• Coastal Artillery
  

Despite all the advances in technology, artillery remains a core part of any army. We were very fortunate to interview Colonel Leon L. Rogers II, Project Manager, Combat Ammunition Systems (PM CAS), from the JPEO Armaments & Ammunition. In this piece, Colonel Rogers dives into the latest development and challenges faced by the JPEO Armaments & Ammunition. An essential piece of reading for anyone interested in the JPEO’s wishes from industry.
