Dear Ladies and Gentlemen!

On behalf of the Ministry of Defense and Aerospace Industry of the Republic of Kazakhstan and on my own behalf, I welcome you and I am pleased to announce the holding of the V International Exhibition Weapons Systems and Military Equipment "KADEX-2018", which will be held from May 23 to 26, 2018 in Astana.

This is the first exhibition held under the auspices of the Ministry of Defense and Aerospace Industry of the Republic of Kazakhstan. It will be attended by domestic and foreign enterprises of the defense-industrial complex and space industry, leading design bureaus and research institutes.

During the years of the exhibition "KADEX" it rightfully became one of the world's leading exhibition platforms for demonstrating weapons, military and special equipment, technologies in the field of information security.

For the first time, the International Forum "Space Days in Kazakhstan" will be held within the framework of the exhibition "KADEX - 2018", which will become one of the central dialogue platforms of the exhibition.

Within the framework of the forum, an extensive scientific and business program will be held that will take place in the format of plenary and sectional meetings, conferences, roundtables, which will allow specialists from all countries to exchange views on topical issues of defense and security, development of the world cosmonautics as well as to discuss the problems of ensuring cyber security at the present stage.

Visitors and participants of the exhibition will see the latest achievements and perspective scientific developments of the enterprises of the defense-industrial complex and the space sphere. A special emphasis on the exhibition will be made on the development of electronic systems, communication systems and weapons control, and search for modern solutions in the field of information security.

The practical result of all of this should be the conclusion of mutually beneficial contracts, the signing of agreements and memorandums, which in turn will promote the development of partnerships in the field of military-technical cooperation, cyber security and the development of outer space.

I invite everyone to participate in the V International Exhibition Weapons Systems and Military Equipment "KADEX-2018".

I am confident that the exhibition "KADEX-2018" will become a large-scale event for the domestic defense industry complex and space enterprises of the country, and will be held at a high level.

I wish the participants and guests of this event productive work and high achievements!

 

 

Sincerely  yours,
