About Offshore Patrol Vessels Latin America

Welcome to OPV & Surface Combatants Latin America 2013: Uniting Latin American navies in an effort to optimise patrol craft and surface combatants to heighten efficient and secure the EEZ

Defence IQ’s inaugural OPV Latin America conference was born out of popular demand from the region following the success of our long-standing OPV conference series. Incorporating similar themes to our European, Asian and Middle Eastern events, OPV Latin America 2012 offered a unique perspective on the procurement strategy and operational concepts of key Latin American navies.

Following the success of last year’s event OPV & Surface Combatants Latin America 2013 is the only naval event in South America that provides an honest assessment of how to balance requirements and capability with acquisition and operational costs while sharing combating solutions to the most prevalent security concerns.

In addition to revealing procurement and acquisition strategies and inspecting several fleet renewal and OPV projects, the event will include in-depth technological presentations covering innovative solutions on system integration and capability implementation.

Artists / Speakers: Anthony Fairbanks, Colonel Marco Stoccuto, Brigadier R.J.A. Stanford, Air Commodore Ian Wood, Rear Admiral Miguel Jose Rodriguez.
