International Fighter Conference 2025

International Fighter Conference 2025Celebrating its 25th anniversary, the annual International Fighter Conference (IFC) continues to be the world’s leading event bringing together the greatest minds in combat aviation, from across the globe.Returning in 2025 to the brand new location of Rome, Italy, over 400 leaders and air force commanders from across continents, who are working to ensure air superiority in an increasingly contested battlespace will meet to collaborate and discuss the latest developments in combat air operations, and next-generation technology.As nations continue to develop their Future Combat Air Systems and contracts start to be awarded, interoperability across the aerospace domain is a key factor in ensuring air superiority and maintaining the advantage over adversaries. From NGAD and FCAS, to GCAP and F/A-XX, there is much discussion around the technologies available and the operational environments that these systems will contend with when they enter service. The evolving role of industry as nations look to establish a more independent industrial base is also playing a critical part in the development of next-generation platforms and capabilities.Attracting senior military leaders, government officials, and industry experts at the forefront of fighter technology, IFC is the only global event with up-to-date information on the ongoing lessons and changes in warfare and equipment.Join us in Rome, Italy in November 2025!SpeakersLieutenant General David TaborDeputy Chief of Staff for Plans and Programs U.S. Air ForceVice Admiral Daniel CheeverCommander, Naval Air Forces US NavyMajor General Jonas WikmanCommander Swedish Air ForceMajor General Paul MogaCommander US Third Air ForceMore...Register ( for this Event )Post/Register Your EventQuick LinksOur ServicesMedia Pack DownloadNewslettersMore Events From This OrganizerCounter UAS Summit 2...19 August - 20 August 2025The Westin Arlington, VA, USADefence Estates & In...30 September - 1 October 2025Hilton Syon Park Hotel, London, UKSeabed Security 202530 September - 1 October 2025Troia, PortugalInternational Dismou...28 October - 29 October 2025Millennium Gloucester Hotel, London, UKMaritime ISR 202528 October - 29 October 2025Copthorne Tara Hotel, London, UKSecure Australia Con...11 November - 12 November 2025Ann Harding Conference Centre, University of Canberra, ACT, AustraliaCountering Explosive...23 September - 24 September 2025Copthorne Tara Hotel, London, UKDefence Transformati...3 December - 4 December 2025Copthorne Tara Hotel, London, UKLand Warfare Europe...9 December - 10 December 2025VIlnius, LithuaniaInternational Armour...20 January - 22 January 2026Farnborough International Exhibition Centre, UK25th annual Internat...24 February - 26 February 2026Novotel London West, London, UKBorder Technology Su...24 February - 24 February 2026Canberra, AustraliaFuture Indirect Fire...27 January - 28 January 2026Austin, TX, USAUncrewed and Autonom...3 December - 4 December 2025Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington, London, UKEvent Location MapSheraton Rome Parco de' Medici, Rome, ItalyRegister ( for this Event )×Select CountryAfghanistanAlbaniaAlgeriaAmerican SamoaAndorraAngolaAnguillaAntarcticaAntigua and BarbudaArgentinaArmeniaArubaAustraliaAustriaAzerbaijanBahamasBahrainBangladeshBarbadosBelarusBelgiumBelizeBeninBermudaBhutanBoliviaBosnia and HerzegovinaBotswanaBouvet IslandBrazilBritish Indian Ocean TerritoryBrunei DarussalamBulgariaBurkina FasoBurundiCambodiaCameroonCanadaCape VerdeCayman IslandsCentral African RepublicChadChileChinaChristmas IslandCocos (Keeling) IslandsColombiaComorosCongoCook IslandsCosta RicaCroatia (Hrvatska)CubaCyprusCzech RepublicDenmarkDjiboutiDominicaDominican RepublicEast TimorEcuadorEgyptEl SalvadorEquatorial GuineaEritreaEstoniaEthiopiaFalkland Islands (Malvinas)Faroe IslandsFijiFinlandFranceFrance, MetropolitanFrench GuianaFrench PolynesiaFrench Southern TerritoriesGabonGambiaGeorgiaGermanyGhanaGibraltarGuernseyGreeceGreenlandGrenadaGuadeloupeGuamGuatemalaGuineaGuinea-BissauGuyanaHaitiHeard and Mc Donald IslandsHondurasHong KongHungaryIcelandIndiaIsle of ManIndonesiaIran (Islamic Republic of)IraqIrelandIsraelItalyIvory CoastJerseyJamaicaJapanJordanKazakhstanKenyaKiribatiKorea, Democratic People's Republic ofKorea, Republic ofKosovoKuwaitKyrgyzstanLao People's Democratic RepublicLatviaLebanonLesothoLiberiaLibyan Arab JamahiriyaLiechtensteinLithuaniaLuxembourgMacauMacedoniaMadagascarMalawiMalaysiaMaldivesMaliMaltaMarshall IslandsMartiniqueMauritaniaMauritiusMayotteMexicoMicronesia, Federated States ofMoldova, Republic ofMonacoMongoliaMontenegroMontserratMoroccoMozambiqueMyanmarNamibiaNauruNepalNetherlandsNetherlands AntillesNew CaledoniaNew ZealandNicaraguaNigerNigeriaNiueNorfolk IslandNorthern Mariana IslandsNorwayOmanPakistanPalauPalestinePanamaPapua New GuineaParaguayPeruPhilippinesPitcairnPolandPortugalPuerto RicoQatarReunionRomaniaRussian FederationRwandaSaint Kitts and NevisSaint LuciaSaint Vincent and the GrenadinesSamoaSan MarinoSao Tome and PrincipeSaudi ArabiaSenegalSerbiaSeychellesSierra LeoneSingaporeSlovakiaSloveniaSolomon IslandsSomaliaSouth AfricaSouth Georgia South Sandwich IslandsSpainSri LankaSt. HelenaSt. Pierre and MiquelonSudanSurinameSvalbard and Jan Mayen IslandsSwazilandSwedenSwitzerlandSyrian Arab RepublicTaiwanTajikistanTanzania, United Republic ofThailandTogoTokelauTongaTrinidad and TobagoTunisiaTurkeyTurkmenistanTurks and Caicos IslandsTuvaluUgandaUkraineUnited Arab EmiratesUnited KingdomUnited StatesUnited States minor outlying islandsUruguayUzbekistanVanuatuVatican City StateVenezuelaVietnamVirgin Islands (British)Virgin Islands (U.S.)Wallis and Futuna IslandsWestern SaharaYemenZaireZambiaZimbabweSubmit
