Counter UAS Technology USA 2026 Conference Set for Washington, D.C.
The 6th annual Counter UAS Technology USA Conference is scheduled to take place in Arlington, Washington, D.C., from November 30 to December 2, 2026. Following the overwhelming success and sold-out attendance of the 2025 edition, this year’s event promises to be larger than ever, offering an expanded platform dedicated to addressing the growing threat posed by unmanned aerial systems (UAS).
Focus on Strengthening U.S. Defense
Counter UAS Technology USA 2026 will bring together a comprehensive assembly of key stakeholders including military and government C-UAS program managers, policymakers, research and development experts, as well as industry partners. Together, these groups will engage in vital discussions and collaborative efforts aimed at enhancing the United States’ defensive capabilities against increasingly sophisticated and prevalent UAS threats.
Bridging Government, Industry, and Innovation
The conference is designed to foster an ecosystem that supports dialogue and partnership-building between the public sector and private industry. Topics will likely range from advances in detection and interception technologies to the integration of counter-drone solutions within broader national security frameworks. Emphasis is anticipated on cutting-edge innovation and practical deployment strategies that can effectively counter the evolving challenges faced by defense forces.
