Don’t just take our word for what Warrior Expo is like—see what industry influencer Soldier Systems Daily had to say about the latest products and technologies that were debuted at the show.

Warrior Expo is a biannual premier defense industry show, hosted by ADS. It’s exclusive to military, law enforcement, first responders, and the defense industry. Exhibitors are invite-only and are comprised of leading manufacturers and suppliers of operational equipment, technology, or services. Register for Warrior Expo East, hosted in Virginia Beach, VA on Wednesday, July 11 and Thursday, July 12.

Beyond displayed their A5 Rig Lite Jacket and Pant in AOR 2. When the Navy brought to light the NWU Type III, this pattern became very prevalent among brands.

The Noctus Dual IR payload was also showcased on Warrior Expo West. This product features Dual FLIR Boson IR cameras which provide 640×512 video and 32 deg to 2 degree Field of View zoom, with seamless transition between cameras. This camera also has the capabilities for an IR laser pointer. It also has built-in real-time Geo location and Geo pointing capabilities.

At Warrior Expo West, Speedbox launched their new Endurance-40. This was designed to fit both the 463L pallet and ISU90, which many units use. In addition to the size change, Speedbox also improved the ways individual Endurance-40 interlock with one another, making loads more stable on a pallet. They’ve also lengthened the pull bar so the Endurance-40 doesn’t hit your heels while you pull it. It featured a watertight seal with improved latches at either side of the lid with a load capacity of 250 pounds.

StabilIcers has launched their new Hike Macro which features a removable 1/2″ stainless steel cleat. When the crampon-like 1/2″ cleats are removed, the Hike Macro still offers their standard cleats. This comes in 4 sizes to accommodate feet between sizes 4 and 16. A Black variant will be launching soon.
