The 2016 edition welcomed official armies and private security firms from 94 different countries and more than 50.000 visitors. Among its prestigious visitors was François Fillon (former French Prime Minister) and Jean-Yves Le Drian (current French Ministry of Defense).

With his personal look, Richard Kalvar photographed professional buyers testing weapons, defense equipment and vehicles, giving an absurd look at the war industry.
