AERIAL DEFENSE

Israel is a world leader in aerial defense technology and is known for its Arrow (developed by the IAI in conjunction with other international companies), Iron Dome (developed by Rafael in conjunction with Elta and MPrest Systems), and David’s Sling (developed by Rafael and Raytheon) missile systems.

These systems use cutting-edge technology to provide protection from multiple threats, ranging from surface missiles fired by low-flying helicopters to every type of ballistic threat; exo-atmospheric interception, long-range interception; and interception in large defense zones.

Leading Israeli companies: Rafael, IAI, Elbit, and IMI.

According to Frost & Sullivan, Israel is the largest UAV exporter in the world, with total revenue of approximately $4.62 billion between 2005 and 2012, an annual average of $578 million.
