As IAI approaches the 2003Paris Air Show, what eventshave affected the marketsand what do you have to doto face the new reality?Eckhaus: “There can be nodoubt that this year’s Paris AirShow will be different fromany other. Dramatic eventssuch as the attacks on Septem-ber 11th, wars in Afghanistanand Iraq, the growing world-wide understanding of thestrategic threat presented byterror and the immense re-sources that governmentsmust commit to meet thatthreat. Those events will find initial responseat the Paris Show, which is the “shop window”for the defense and aerospace industries. IAIis adapting its business policies to face this newsituation brought about by those events.”“As always in business and perhaps particularlyso in these times, the ‘name of the game’ isadaptation. The winners will be those who canadapt faster to new situations, needs and pri-orities as they develop. By their very nature,defense industries are large and complex. Everychange in their business strategy involves long-term development and marketing efforts, butat the same time, government decision-mak-ing is not a day-to-day process. Even if it isobvious to everyone that in the coming yearsthe market will focus on ways to combat ter-ror, the decision makers must still examine

needs and budgets before theywill be able to see, understandand implement the conclu-sions reached after recentevents.”Does this mean that thedefense industries will waitfor governments to take de-cisions?Eckhaus: “I don’t think so, atleast not here at IAI. As I saidbefore, many goverments willbe learning lessons from re-cent events, but when theyreach their decisions, we mustbe ready to provide the solu-tions. The large backlog of or-

ders on IAI books allows us the necessary free-dom to develop those solutions or alternatively,to upgrade and adapt existing solutions. Overthe last three years, we have worked very hardto achieve the present situation in which theorders in hand reach over $4.5 billion. Of thatamount $3 billion were recorded in 2002, al-though that year was particularly a difficult onefor aviation industries around the world. Thishigh level of orders gives us the breathing spacethat we will use to adapt to changing marketsand offer more advanced systems that will an-swer the new needs.”“Another important event, which increases ourvolume of activity is that Elta Systems Group,an IAI subsidiary, has purchased 30 percent ofthe shares in Elisra, a Koor Industries subsidi-ary. This step has strategic importance. The

purchase allows Elta to implement the synergy,which exploits the relative advantages of eachcompany. It is important to note that the purchaseis 30 percent of Elisra Group, which includesBVR, Tadiran Systems and Tadiran Spectralink.That means maximum benefit from the invest-ment because other IAI Divisions will be involvedin the integration with Elisra Group activities.”What is your policy about expanding IAI’scooperative ventures in Israel and abroad?Eckhaus: “IAI is giving a great deal of atten-tion to cooperative activities. We intend to co-operate with any potential partner - in Israel orabroad, with proven knowledge and capabili-ties. Thereby, we will not have to “reinvent thewheel” if we can avoid it. An example of thiswill be on view at the Paris Air Show, wherewe will have a border defense system devel-oped in cooperation with RAFAEL (Israel Ar-mament Development Authority).Similarly, we are presently organizing our co-operative partnerships on the subject of Home-land Security. Many companies have excellentsolutions for specific challenges. For instance,there are companies manufacturing excellentexplosives sensors; others produce detectionsystems for chemical and even biological ma-terials. That said, few industries can bring allthe elements together in an integrated systemand then add their own systems. That is exactlywhat we intend to do.”“Overall, in my opinion such cooperative ac-tivities constitute a pivotal role in IAI develop-ment. In every sense, we view such coopera-tive activities as strategic steps and we willmake every effort to expand them. At the ParisAir Show, we will also have the L-39 Jet Traineron display, with an upgrade package developedin cooperation with the Ukrainian company,AVIRS; an ALH (DHRUV) helicopter manu-factured by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited(HAL), which includes IAI avionics and more.”Israel Air Force (IAF) has announced thatthe “Arrow” Missile Defense System is op-erational. Despite this, the “Arrow” was notused during the war in Iraq…Eckhaus: “I am delighted that we were notforced to use the ‘Arrow’ system. I am sure thatif it had been necessary to use the system, itwould have displayed its full capabilities, ex-actly as they have been proven in all the

scenarios and successful tests. It is possible thatthe fact that Israel had this system at its dis-posal was a consideration by the Iraqis whendeciding whether or not to fire Scud missilesat Israel.Threats presented by long-range missiles arenot on the wane, but increasing. The ‘Arrow’system is an operational missile defense sys-tem, and that unique status will remain with usfor a long time in the future.”September 11th changed the world order onall questions of terror, which has become astrategic threat. However, it also broughtwith it a deep economic recession that firstand foremost, has affected the civil aviationindustry. As a company with almost 50 per-cent of its activities aimed at the civil avia-tion market, has this had any detrimentaleffect on IAI?Eckhaus: “Clearly, we are an inseparable part ofthe civil aviation market and it is also clear thatas with all the other aviation industries aroundthe world, we await that recovery, which is stillnot visible on the horizon. The deciding factor atthis juncture is the ability to increase competi-tiveness and thereby ensure that damage will beminimal. Over recent years, IAI has undertakena comprehensive range of efficiency measures,which succeeded in safeguarding our capabilitiesand allowed us to maintain our level of businessactivity and our position in world markets.Moreover: in the field of aircraft conversions,

we have made a significant leap forward evenin these difficult times. It is important to re-member that the passenger and cargo aircraftmarkets behave differently. Even when there isa drop in the scale of passenger movements,the freight market does not react similarly.IAI’s Bedek Aviation Group has acquired vastexperience in aircraft conversion design andconverting many and different aircraft. TodayBedek is a world leader in this field.”What can you tell us about the business jetmarket?Eckhaus: “We expected that the threat of terroristactivity would have implications on regular avia-tion traffic security measures that would lead to arise in demand and of course the use of businessjets. In fact, up until about a year ago, we de-tected a small rise in demand - primarily becausecommercial organizations purchased business jetsunder fractional ownership programs. This trendhas undergone downsizing, reacting to the eco-nomic downturn and after financial irregulari-ties came to light in large US companies, thosevery companies that were and still are the po-tential customers for our business jets. Today,managers are required to exercise greater pru-dence than was true in the past.”“To summarize”, says Eckhaus, “the next twoyears will be a real test period for IAI. Onlywith the passage of time we will be able toknow if in fact we have prepared ourselvesproperly for the changes that take place inworld markets.”

Eckhaus: ”I am delighted that wewere not forced to use the ‘Arrow‘ system. I am sure that if ithad been necessary to use thesystem, it would have displayedits full capabilities, exactly as theyhave been proven in all thescenarios and successful tests”

Eckhaus: ”Overall, in my opinionsuch cooperative activitiesconstitute a pivotal role in IAIdevelopment. In every sense, weview such cooperative activities asstrategic steps and we will makeevery effort to expand them”

The events of September 11, 2001 continue tocast a shadow over many countries. Subsequentwarnings and attacks have added to the threatof terrorist attacks, and have led to an increasein demand for Homeland Security solutions tothese threats.In response to the existing and growing world-wide threat of terrorism, IAI’s subsidiary EltaSystem Group has made enormous advancesin developing solutions. Using Elta’s expertiseemphasizes the use of proven technologies in

the proactive fightagainst terror.Elta’s proven experi-ence in developingsolutions to fight ter-rorists in Israel arenow being offered toIAI’s internationalcustomers. Some ofthese systems will beon display at the2003 Paris Air Show.Using Elta’s sys-tems and technolo-gies, solutionsagainst potential

threats are offered in the following areas:� Ground and costal border protection systems� Systems for the protection of internationalborder crossings (naval, airport and border passsecurity systems)� Site security systems (for vital installationssuch as energy sites, government, etc.)� Commercial aircraft self-protection system(“Flight Guard”)� Signal Intelligence (SIGINT) informationgathering systems, focusing on terrorist infra-structuresToday, Elta already operates a wide range ofdifferent equipment deployed to protect Isra-el’s borders and installations. Responding tothe current threats, the company has deployeda defense system along the “seam line” (theseparation area between Israel and the Pales-tinian Authority) to demonstrate concept andhardware efficacy. The system includes a com-mand and control center, integrated observa-tion systems (an EL/M-2129 movement detec-tion and security radar, and a POP — Plug inOptronic Payload optical sensor). Additionaloptions are: surveillance balloon (aerostat), anUnmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and Commu-nication Intelligence (COMINT) systems.

These different products are designed to workin interactive synergy with active forces at alllevels of deployment. They can be adapted tomeet each customer’s needs, and can easily beintegrated with a customer’s existing capabilities.Essentially, the system is designed to createvirtual control areas, which are created by theintegration of different sensor systems. At theappropriate stage, the system alerts, activatesand manages the timely deployment of in-terception forces to frustrate any attemptto penetrate the border and enter Israel.A key element of the border protectionsystem is its ability to provide realtime communications between thevarious sub-systems and provide theforces with real-time information (tac-tical awareness picture) about the lo-cation of the threat. This essential con-trol element is achieved by providing small,hardened handheld computers to the field el-ement commander. The computer displays a dy-namic and tactical picture with the position ofboth military force and the threat, on a singlescreen.Avi Greenberg, who is responsible for Home-land Security’s Business Development at Elta,explains: “The basic idea of site protection sys-tems is to provide two layers, or circles ofdefense; the outer circle allows control over aswide an area necessary, and the activation ofoperational forces against the threat, before itcan reach the facility’s perimeter. The innercircle is another mechanism, which is availablein the event of a penetration in the outer circleby someone who is not deterred by detection,such as a suicide bomber. The inner circle de-vices include electronic fences with radars, opti-cal sensors, searchlights and other detection de-vices that will rotate to the area of penetration.The system is controlled from one central loca-tion, which is able to manage the response to anyactivity in the area”, adds Greenberg.Greenberg’s convincing case that the installationof an electronic protection system is “the mostcost-effective method both in capital and in man-

power, when com-pared with other al-ternatives. A cus-

tomer may purchaseonly some of the sys-

tem’s elements, whichwill further reduce its price.”

Another anti-terror Elta systemthat has been operational for many years (in itsmilitary version) is the “Flight Guard” — acommercial aircraft self-protection system. Thesystem protects aircraft from shoulder-firedmissiles. “Flight Guard” is already installed onover 150 airplanes and has been proven to be alife saver.Today, many countries face the threat of ter-rorism and seek solutions to counter them. Eltaassigns top priority to the issue of HomelandSecurity, in cooperation withother companies. Elta contin-ues to be in the forefront of de-veloping systems to counterthese threats.

IAI’s Unique Upgrade Package forthe Czech L-39 Trainer provides LowCost Quality Training CapabilitiesIsrael Aircraft Industries’Lahav Division has developeda unique training system up-grade package for the CzechL-39 jet trainer aircraft. TheLahav system allows theL-39, without advanced sys-tems such as radar and elec-tronic warfare equipment, tobe flown as if training is per-formed in a sophisticated ad-vanced fighter aircraft such asthe F-16 or Sukhoi-27.Lahav’s Virtual Training Sys-tem transforms the L-39trainer into a very sophisti-cated advanced jet trainer.“Lahav’s system allows theL-39 pilot to fly an aircraftwithout any added expensivesystems and go through a fulltraining operation whichsimulates flight in an ad-vanced fighter,” said JoshuaFrenkel, International Market-ing Manager and Lahav Divi-sion’s Marketing Coordinatorfor the L-39 program.“We have provided this air-craft,” continues Frenkel,“with a complete virtual train-ing capability. To meet thetraining needs of any particu-lar aircraft, the pilot only hasto press a button, and the air-craft’s advanced avionics sys-tem will simulate the specificaircraft required for that train-ing session.”Lahav will be exhibiting theadvanced L-39 trainer at the2003 Paris Air Show.Lahav has more than 30 yearsexperience in upgrading morethan 1,300 fighters and jettrainers from 15 different airforces. Based on this provenexperience, Lahav was able toincorporate the optimum so-lution for the trainer aircraftupgrade package, to providehigh-level training in the mostcost effective manner.

“The cost of L-39 pilot train-ing is less than 10 percent ofthe cost of pilot training inadvanced fighters,” addedFrenkel. “In addition, theL-39 has a reputation for highreliability with particularlylow flight-hour and mainte-nance costs, to further reducethe life cycle costs of thistrainer aircraft.”Lahav’s virtual training sys-tem has been successfully in-tegrated in the Spanish AirForce’s upgraded F-5B air-craft and it simulates the F-18

radar system operation. Lahavwon the contract for this pro-gram in an international com-petition.Lahav’s design for the up-graded L-39 includes ad-vanced sensors that use GPSand laser gyro technology toachieve accurate performancefor navigation and attack. Thepilot’s cockpit is equippedwith advanced Multi-Func-tion Color Display (MFCD)and Head Up Display (HUD).The virtual training systemallows the pilot to deploy a

Thesystem can simulate actualbombing missions, includingmarking the target and the hiton the target. All training ses-sions are recorded to providethe material necessary fordebriefings. The system canbe customized to meet thespecific requirements of eachair force.To upgrade the L-39 demon-strator, Lahav cooperated withthe Ukrainian company,AVIRS, who specializes inL-39 maintenance. AVIRS alsoworked on extending the air-craft’s service life, and designedengine improvements.“One of the advantages thatcustomers gain by workingwith Lahav,” said Frenkel, “isthat we have extensive experi-ence in all the aspects of com-prehensive logistical and tech-nical support, including spareparts, ground support equip-ment, documentation and pilot/ground crews training to sup-port the effective aircraft opera-tion and maintenance.”“I am convinced,” concludedFrenkel, “that there is no othertraining system in the worldas advanced as Lahav’s virtualtraining upgrade package.Any experienced pilot willreach this conclusion if heuses our system.”
