Israel at FIDAE 2008 – The Leading Edge of Defense & Security

Israel has established a unique, long lasting relationship with most Latin American countries, based on mutual economic and defense interests

Israel’s unique security situation has always challenged the nation’s technological capabilities to counter manifold situations in a constantly changing regional threat scenario. Israel maintains a relatively small armed force, and relies on its defense industries to develop and upgrade unique defense systems creating the force multipliers required for its survival. Equally advanced solutions are provided to support the ongoing war against terror, enhancing homeland security.

Based on extensive operational experience, Israel's defense products are in service with many nations, supporting national defense and peacekeeping forces worldwide. These include advanced air, land and naval systems, designed for all contingencies, from high intensity warfare to homeland security. Israel's defense industries also provide comprehensive modernization and upgrading packages to maximize current systems lifecycle and maintain their effectiveness against all perceived threats.
