the evolving priorities of the global defence industry. In 2026, defence development is increasingly
shaped by the need for integrated, interoperable, and future ready capabilities across land, air,
maritime, and cyber domains. Key growth areas such as digital integration, counter drone systems,
and underwater and subsea technologies are becoming central to defence capability planning,
reflecting a global shift toward networked and multi-domain defence structures.

Within this evolving industry landscape, Indo Defence take part at a showcase of defence,
technology, and maritime exhibition held in Qatar on 19\u201321 January 2026. The engagement
served as an opportunity to observe current industry directions, exchange professional
perspectives, and reinforce Indo Defence\u2019s position as Indonesia\u2019s Official Tri-Service Defence
Exhibition, officially endorsed and organised to connect global defence industry players with
Indonesia\u2019s defence ecosystem.
The 11th edition of Indo Defence is designed to support national and regional defence development
through a comprehensive exhibition and forum program. The event will feature expert level
seminars, industry forums, and technical presentations addressing contemporary defence priorities,
alongside product exhibitions and product demonstrations showcasing deployed defence
technologies. This program is designed to facilitate engagement among defence manufacturers,
system integrators, government institutions, armed forces, and security stakeholders.
In support of industry readiness and innovation, the upcoming exhibition will introduce two
dedicated strategic program areas: The Innovation Zone and the Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul
(MRO) Zone. The Innovation Zone serves as an accelerator for commercializing national defence
research (BATEKHAN), fostering industry collaboration, and supporting defence technology
start-ups. Meanwhile, the MRO Zone aims to showcase national MRO capabilities (Baharwat),
attract global investment and technical partnerships, while solidifying Indonesia’s position as a
regional defence maintenance hub.
Indo Defence plays a vital role in bridging global innovation with regional operational needs,
supporting capability development, industrial collaboration, and long term defence resilience.
Through continued engagement with global defence platforms and ongoing alignment with market
developments, Indo Defence 2026 ensures that its exhibition content, featured technologies, and
strategic focus remain relevant to current and future defence requirements.
Indo Defence 2026 Expo & Forum, incorporating with Indo Aerospace and Indo Marine 2026 Expo
& Forum will take place on 18\u201321 November 2026 at Jakarta, Indonesia as a part of Indonesia’s
Official Tri-Service Defence, Aerospace, Maritime, and Security Event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
