The agreement, signed
by ELTA's subsidiary LARDOSA, includes exchange of knowledge between
professional teams, investment in laboratories and factories, intellectual
property agreements in both directions and, especially, product support
guaranteed by IACIT. ELTA is a major
defense electronics company, providing a wide spectrum of systems in
the field of radars, special mission aircraft, ISTAR (Intelligence,
Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance), electronic warfare
and communication. Joseph Weiss, IAI's President and CEO and ELTA's Chairman said: "We view Brazil as one of our key markets. Our investement in IACIT is an expression of our enduring committment to support Brazilian customers. We will continue to invest in Brazil also in other segments." "This agreement will lead IACIT to an unprecedented technological advancement in the Brazilian industry and will assist us in meeting the important defense projects' needs in Brazil," said IACIT President, Luiz Teixeira. "By relying only on our own technological development, IACIT could not have provided its solutions required by the market on schedule. This partnership increases our portfolio and places the company on a heightened technological level, which otherwise would have required years of execessive investment," Teixeira said. |
