Join us at the Aeroballistic Range Association (ARA) annual meeting. ARA meetings are attended by an international group of scientists and engineers from government, academia, and industry involved in various aspects of maintaining, upgrading, and utilizing launcher technology for a variety of research applications, mostly involving defense or aerospace applications. The meeting is primarily composed of technical talks presented by the ARA members.

Topics covered at the annual meeting include:

• Ballistic range operations;
• Instrumentation for studying dynamic mechanical events;
• Evaluation of range accidents;
• Exterior and terminal ballistics research technology;
• Development of research launchers;

• Impact mechanics and shock physics research technology;
• Evaluation of high-speed vehicle flight characteristics;
• Armor development technology; and
• Non-classical applications of gun-related testing.
