JERUSALEM, Jan. 14 (Xinhua) -- The Israeli government company Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) on Thursday announced that it will deliver 17 radar systems to Slovakia.
These systems, considered IAI's flagship multi-mission radars, will be provided in a 150-million-euro deal signed between the defense ministries of the two countries, a company statement said.
The agreement, led by the International Defense Cooperation Directorate at the Israeli Ministry of Defense, includes the transfer of technology and knowledge from Israel to Slovakia as well as industrial cooperation.
The radar components will be manufactured in collaboration with defense industries in Slovakia, under the professional guidance of IAI and the Israeli defense ministry.
The radar detects airborne threats, classifies them, calculates their threat level and provides essential data that enables systems to neutralize multiple threats simultaneously. Enditem
