Haifa, Israel (SPX) Nov 04, 2010 Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) has been awarded a contract worth $9 million (USD) to provide a foreign customer with its ELM-2105 radar-based border protection system. The radar, which is part of IAI/ELTA's newly developed tactical ground surveillance radar family, has two back-to-back beams, and rotates 360 degrees at an extremely fast speed. These features enhance surveillance and detection probabilities, on the battlefield and in border patrol. The ELM-2105 was chosen by the foreign customer following a rigorous testing period. Nissim Hadas, IAI Corporate VP and President of ELTA Systems, a group and subsidiary of IAI, said: "IAI and ELTA offer a wide variety of operationally proven technologies and products, providing creative solutions to the challenges of homeland security and border protection. "Our customers receive systems that have been developed and manufactured with the highest standards and are based on vast experience and knowledge in the field of ground tactical radars as well as in the field of integrated radar based systems for border and site protection."
