I really hope the Covid situation gets better until then. But then again the majority of foreign personel taking part would be vaccinated by then. (England and USA have already vaccinated the majority of adults.)

Right now over-40s are being vaccinated in the UK infections rates are very low, expect to see high participation from Britain as defence ties are growing ever stronger.

Companies such as Aselsan Roketsan didnt listed their products there, only minor ones. Probably they will "surprise" us
Some products are listed, but maybe some are hidden as you say. I’ll keep my expectations low to be happy if there is a surprise.
