Ahead of the 2026 International Armoured Vehicles Conference, check out this exclusive presentation that captured the attention of senior military leaders, industry innovators, and policymakers at IAV 2025.

The featured presentation, delivered by Major General Alain Lardet, Deputy Chief of Staff (Plans & Programs) for the French Army, explores how the SCORPION and TITAN programmes are transforming France’s Land Forces. Drawing on lessons from current conflicts and future threat scenarios, he reveals how capability priorities are being reimagined to meet the challenges of high-intensity warfare. 

This is a must-read for anyone invested in the future of land warfare, defence innovation, and the evolving role of armoured vehicles on the modern battlefield.
