  Featured Event: Evolving Aerospace Trends in the Asia-Pacific Region  


The presentation of a new Project 2049 Institute report on aerospace trends in Asia and a keynote speech by the Deputy Defense Minister of Taiwan.

As the U.S. and its allies and friends in the Asia-Pacific region evaluate future force postures, China’s defense establishment appears to be making significant advances in developing a force capable of dominating the aerospace environment around its periphery in support of strategic and operational objectives. In light of these trends, how could the regional air balance evolve over the next 15 years? What would the implications be for U.S. regional security interests?
