Elbit Systems announced today that it was awarded two contracts from Rafael Advanced Defense Systems for the supply of airborne laser designators, in a total value of approximately $35 million. The contracts will be performed over a three-year period and systems will be supplied by Rafael to two countries in the Asia-Pacific region.
Elbit Systems’ laser designators have been in the forefront technologically and operationally for over three decades. Elbit Systems’ designators are based on cutting-edge technology, with specific focus on optimizing size, weight, and power (SWaP), thus providing the optimal solution for ground and airborne systems alike.
Significant technological investments, as well as a large-scale production infrastructure have enabled Elbit Systems to become a world leader in the field of lasers in general and laser designators in particular, with thousands of designators operational worldwide. The miniaturized laser systems provide aircrews with force-multiplying capabilities, for a precise target designation and a rapid closure of the sensor to shooter cycle.
Elad Aharonson, General Manager of Elbit Systems’ ISTAR Division said: ”Elbit Systems has years of experience in developing advanced electro-optic systems including highly accurate and powerful laser designators in particular. The awarded contracts reaffirm Elbit Systems’ commitment to the Asia-Pacific market and to its investments in local industries."
