Usually close to where Invictus Launch Week is held.

Drake DefenseCon is an event organized by Drake Interplanetary to promote themselves as a tagalong of the Invictus Launch Week.

The event was launched in 2950 by Drake after repeatedly not being invited to the Invictus conventions. It is advertised as a tool to showcase the contribution and solutions in defense of Drake Interplanetary to militias and security organizations.

While in 2955 DefenseCon was not held as Drake Interplanetary was instead given the chance to participate in Invictus Launch Week for the first time, in 2956 and for reasons still not known the UEE only held the Invictus event in Sol system enabling Drake's CEO Anden Arden to reinstate the DefenseCon far larger than before and including many other manufacturers who normally participated in Invictus instead.
