U.S. Army Defense Exhibition – AUSA Annual Conference of the Association of the U.S. ArmyAssociation of the United States Army

The Association of the United States Army (AUSA) Annual Meeting and Exposition—the U.S. Army’s premier defense exhibition—is the world’s largest and most influential event dedicated to land‑based defense. As a closed‑door trade show focused on industry networking, technology demonstrations, and policy discussions, it does not facilitate direct sales transactions. Participation requires registration, which is open to military personnel, government officials, contractors, and select media outlets; public attendance is limited.

The AUSA Annual Meeting brings together over 700 defense companies from around the globe, showcasing cutting‑edge modernization solutions for ground forces. These include unmanned ground and aerial systems—such as the MUTT XM and the X‑MAV missile launcher—as well as AI‑driven combat platforms, counter‑UAS systems, directed‑energy weapons, next‑generation armored vehicles, and advanced logistics and command‑and‑control systems. The event also serves as a key barometer for the U.S. military’s articulation of future operational concepts, including multi‑domain operations and distributed operations.

At this year’s exhibition, General Dynamics Land Systems unveiled its new MUTT XM 8x8 wheeled unmanned ground vehicle. An upgraded variant of the original MUTT platform, the MUTT XM boasts a maximum payload exceeding 1,360 kilograms, enabling it to transport ammunition, fuel, weapons, and other essential supplies to forward units. This significantly reduces soldiers’ logistical burdens while enhancing the efficiency and safety of supply chains. Moreover, the vehicle can rapidly reconfigure its payloads, accommodating modular remote‑controlled weapon stations, electronic warfare suites, reconnaissance sensors, and obstacle‑clearing equipment, thereby supporting fire support, electronic warfare, forward reconnaissance, and clearance missions. It demonstrates robust multi‑mission capabilities and a degree of autonomous operation.

Juzhan Exhibition, with innovation in technology and exceptional service experiences at its core, has earned widespread acclaim. For many years, Juzhan has provided efficient, professional exhibition services to Chinese exporters. The AUSA Annual Meeting and Exposition stands out as an ideal platform for Chinese land‑defense enterprises seeking to expand into the North American market.
