Nearly 500 system engineers, designers, scientists, researchers, managers, and senior leaders attend from the joint services, NASA, DOE, academia, and industry. The Symposium has established a format that focuses on key materials and processing challenges associated with system and component needs on the critical path to enabling current and future capabilities. The NSMMS maintains this focus to directly convey to a diverse audience of researchers, planners, managers, and senior leadership the importance of supporting advanced materials technology development. Advanced materials are crucial to the improved performance and reliability of both commercial and defense systems. As a national materials community, it is important to establish and continue an exchange with our leaders emphasizing that advanced materials research must be a priority for the country.</p>

<p><strong>Optimising the Air and Space Contribution to National Security</strong></p>
<p>The United Kingdom’s fighting services are approaching a strategic crossroads. The publication of a defence Green Paper early in 2010 and the likelihood of a Defence and Security Review following the general election will have significant implications for the size, shape and structure of the UK’s armed forces. <strong>&#8216;Meeting the Challenge&#8217;</strong> &#8211; the Royal Air Force Air Power Conference 2010 &#8211; aims to take stock of these developments and explore how air and space power can make a relevant contribution in responding to the strategic choices posed in the Green Paper, in a context constrained by fiscal stringency and where ongoing operations in support of the ISAF mission in Afghanistan remain the main effort for defence.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ever-increasing numbers of exporters find themselves subject to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), a complex set of export controls administered and enforced by the State Department. The ITAR affects companies that manufacture and/or export defense-related goods or services as well as companies that export commercial products specifically designed, developed, configured or modified for use in defense-related applications.</p>
<p>Because of the onerous and lengthy nature of the ITAR license approval process, ITAR exporters must possess a clear understanding of licensing procedures while providing targeted, complete information to avoid delays. This seminar will review the full range of license types and uses under ITAR covering exports, imports, temporary exports and imports, license amendments and more. The seminar will also review the different types of ITAR agreements and license exemptions. The seminar will provide guidance on specific information and documentary requirements needed for different ITAR licenses and agreements, and will also review D-Trade, the State Department’s automated licensing system. Participants will walk away with practical information and tips on effectively managing the ITAR license application process while minimizing delays and confusion.</p>
