IDET

The most successful trade show focused on strengthening defense and security took place at the Brno Exhibition Centre. The 18th IDET international fair, together with the PYROS and ISET fairs, was a comprehensive showcase of new technologies and options for countering various security risks. This year, more than 650 exhibiting companies from 35 countries were featured and over 35 thousand visitors visited the fairs in the course of three days.

Three key industrial cooperation agreements were signed today at IDET between Czech companies and Lockheed Martin in the framework of the project to acquire 24 F-35A Lightning II aircraft for the Czech Army.

In his opening speech at IDET, PYROS and ISET, President Petr Pavel stressed the importance of closer cooperation within the EU and NATO. He described the security and defence of the country as a common task for all citizens, who must have the will to defend what matters.
