New for 2026, The SOF Week Outpost at Peter O. Knight Airport Presented by Northrop Grumman provides a unique opportunity to see advanced capabilities in an operationally relevant environment. From live aerial operations to ground-based demonstrations, you’ll get a front-row seat to the technology shaping the future of special operations.

The SOF Week Outpost at Peter O. Knight Airport is an expanded zone for Special Air Warfare — a purpose-built venue for airborne demonstrations, aircraft displays, and aviation-focused exhibitors. This expanded environment was created in direct response to industry demand for a space where air-domain technology can be showcased at full scale.
