This CILT(UK) Defence Forum webinar explores the “hidden risk” of obsolescence in the defence supply and support chain and why it is critical to long‑term readiness and resilience. It explains how ageing platforms, end‑of‑life components and disappearing skills can quietly undermine availability and drive up costs, and shows how proactive obsolescence management, aligned with defence logistics policy, can protect mission‑critical capability across the equipment lifecycle.
