Electronics Military & Defense Annual Resource 2012
|
![]() We developed this edition of the Electronic Military & Defense as a resource for engineers, program managers, project managers, and other professionals involved in the design and development of electronic and electro-optic systems for a wide range of defense and aerospace applications. In the pages that follow, you will find a wealth of information — emerging trends, new technologies, helpful tutorials, and other resources — to help you succeed in today's challenging-but-rewarding military and defense market. And, to be honest, this magazine only scratches the surface of the vast amount of information the VertMarkets Electronics Group can provide you with on military and defense technology.
I invite you to visit www.vertmarkets.com/electronics and access our 10 industry-specific websites — RF Globalnet, Photonics Online, Aerospace Online, Embedded Technology. com, ElectronicsWeb, GovCon, Fiber Optics Online, Semiconductor Online, Test and Measurement.com, and Wireless Design Online — to help you stay abreast of research and market news, source electronic products and services, interact with your peers, and learn new strategies to apply to your current and upcoming mil-aero projects. We look forward to meeting your information needs, both online and in future issues of Electronic Military & Defense.
Launch Date: August 2012
