The 16th International Defence Industry Exhibition will be held at Kielce Trade Fairs on 8th-11th September, 2008. It is one of Europe's largest and most important events dedicated to the defence industry. The fifteenth jubilee of the Exhibition attracted 364 companies from 24 countries.

The unquestionable attraction of this fair is the opportunity to exhibit heavy military equipment both inside the pavilions and in the surrounding area within the premises of Kielce Trade Fairs. Equally interesting is the possibility to organize demonstrations of equipment in operation in a special outdoor display area. The opening of the edition held in 2007 was marked by a demonstration of the efficiency of the Land Forces, which was held at an airfield located in the village of Masłów near Kielce. It was performed by 160 soldiers, MSPO 10 helicopters, and 3 planes CASA C-295. The third day of the Exhibition saw a demonstration of rescue units representing the State Fire Brigade, which took place in an external area adjacent to the exhibition halls.
