Land Forces 2024 provides Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) with an opportunity to display its state-of-the-art technologies while broadening new and existing partnerships with Australian and other global partners, according to a public statement from the company.
The annual show will take place from 11 to 13 September at the Melbourne Convention Centre.
“This exhibition represents a unique opportunity to showcase the achievements and capabilities of Israel Aerospace Industries and to strengthen the security and economic ties between our countries,” said Amir Peretz, chairman of Israel Aerospace Industries and former Israeli deputy prime minister and minister of defence.
“We continue to invest in opening and strengthening new markets across the globe. Alongside the uncompromising commitment of Israel Aerospace Industries to the Israeli defence system, the past 10 months have proven that we do not abandon our allies, partners, and customers worldwide and continue to provide them with the best solutions available.”
IAI’s products on display will present advanced capabilities for the Australian Army, focusing on rapid system deployment and advanced defence solutions tailored to the Army’s operational concepts.
Among the products to be displayed at the exhibition are intelligence systems, unmanned aerial systems, advanced sensors and electronic warfare systems.
IAI will demonstrate the capabilities of the Scorpius G, the most advanced electronic warfare system, which offers unparalleled defence against a variety of aerial threats, and ADA, a top-notch global navigation satellite system (GNSS) for airborne platforms that hardens military platforms against jamming to ensure GNSS availability and functional GNSS-based systems.
IAI will also display the ThunderBullet high-performance gunfire detection system, comprising short-wave infrared electro-optical and acoustic sensors. The system can be installed on all ground vehicles and is also available as a manpack version for special forces.
In addition, IAI will demonstrate Tactical POPSTAR, an automatic target-detection system covering 360 degrees, representing a breakthrough in technology, developed for real-time threat detection, automatic target recognition classification, handling, and tracking. The system allows for passive terrain and aerial dominance, effectively acting as an electro-optical radar.
“IAI looks forward to participating in this important event. The Australia Land Forces Exposition is a unique opportunity to display our advanced technologies, which are specifically relevant for littoral warfare land forces, alongside partners from around the world. IAI leads the development of holistic solutions for the global market,” Boaz Levy, IAI president and CEO, said.
“Australia and the Pacific region are a key growth segment for us and we look forward to building new partnerships and expanding existing ones. IAI is committed to promoting security on a global scale, supporting defence forces both during times of conflict and when conducting routine security operations, as we continue to innovate and develop advanced, technological solutions.”
