Brig.-Gen. (Ret.) Guy Barlev has served as IAI's executive vice-president since 2020 and has been in charge of the company's Systems Missiles & Space Group division.

IAI unveils new multi-mission aircraft while Rafael showcases the Iron Beam laser defense system and Elbit Systems to highlight it's role as a supplier to the British Armed Forces

New system scrambles the GPS signals enemy drones and missiles rely on to hit their targets, without firing a single interceptor.

New data shows defense-tech firms dominating Israel’s hi-tech investment, with start-up funding tripling year-on-year.

Rafael currently produces the system’s interceptors at one of its plants in northern Israel, and last year a missile production line also began operating in the US in partnership with Raytheon.

According to the Government Companies Authority's valuations, IAI could be listed at a valuation of 100 billion shekels, following a surge in 2025 sales to 7.8 billion dollars.

Levy also criticized France for barring Israel from the Eurosatory weapons exhibition, saying “An embargo is something that has accompanied the State of Israel for many years."

Sri Lanka is upgrading the five Kfir jets that it has under a $50 million deal with IAI. The planes received an advanced cockpit, a new mission computer, and additional avionics improvements.

Mossad chiefs Tamir Pardo, Yossi Cohen, and recently retired chief David Barnea all had a hand in advancing the program, without which it might not have reached the finish line. 

The partnership comes as the DOW increases investments in loitering munitions to expand capabilities to meet modern battlefield demands.
