2 2 NEWS 3 IAI s 2008 Financial Report: Sales in 2008 reach $3.6 billion, compared to $3.3 billion in 2007, an increase of 9 percent IAI s sales in 2008 reached $3.6 billion, as compared with $3.3 billion in 2007, an increase of 9 percent net profit reached $91 million, compared to $118 million in 2007, a decrease of 23 percent. IAI s backlog as of December 31st, 2008, reached $7.1 billion, reflecting two years worth of sales. Cash flow from current projects reached $123 million. At the board meeting in which IAI s 2008 financial figures were confirmed, Yair Shamir, Chairman of the Board, said: IAI grew in 2008 by 9 percent compared to last year, while 81 percent of company sales are to foreign customers. Sales to the civilian market make up 39 percent of total sales. Sales in the defense sector grew by 14 percent compared with a 1 percent growth in the civilian market. The decrease in civilian market sales in the fourth quarter reflects the grave worldwide financial crisis. To IAI, financial strength, a wide product range, and diverse customers are key to helping the company stand firm during this worldwide economic rollercoaster. There are, of course, also business opportunities that may arise as a result of the current situation. Itzhak Nissan, IAI s President & CEO said: In 2008, IAI s operating profit totaled $195 million before expenditures on the early retirement of some of the workforce, in comparison with $157 million in 2007, an increase of 24 percent. We earned this profit despite the revaluation of the shekel in 2008 (which at one point was as low as 3.23 NIS to the US dollar) and the decrease in the interest rate. This profit is a result of the company s ongoing changes to its business practices. These changes include an overhaul in our pricing process, risk management, project reviews and chains of responsibility within IAI management, and an increase in efficiency when it comes to acquisitions and interactions with our suppliers. Such changes will help the company face the current economic crisis and continue Itzhak Nissan: In 2008, IAI s operating profit totaled $195 million before expenditures on the early retirement of some of the workforce, in comparison with $157 million in 2007, an increase of 24 percent Yair Shamir Chairman Itzhak Nissan President & CEO to succeed in the future. The net profit in 2008 totaled $91 million. In 2008, IAI received $3.7 billion in new orders. IAI encourages new product development within its various divisions. The costs of such independent research and development have increased by 21 percent in comparison with last year. During 2008, IAI continued to demonstrate impressive technological achievements, including the successful launching of its TECSAR satellite and the Amos 3 communications satellite. In addition, the company is jointly developing a new G250 business jet with the American company, Gulfstream. Yair Shamir: IAI grew in 2008 by 9 percent compared to last year, while 81 percent of company sales are to foreign customers. Sales to the civilian market make up 39 percent of total sales. Sales in the defense sector grew by 14 percent compared with a 1 percent growth in the civilian market IAI continues to focus on the development of international cooperative endeavors and on a bigger presence in the worldwide market. As such, IAI and the Indian company TATA have agreed to create a joint company. An agreement has also been signed to set up a joint company with the Synergy Corporation in Brazil, and another joint venture has been created with the German company Rheinmetall AG. The company is preparing for a decrease in activity in the civilian market and is working on a number of other projects with increased efficiency and management attention, so as to minimize the impact of the global economic crisis. IAI s President and CEO Itzhak Nissan Receives Manager of the Year Award from Israel Management Center IAI is one of the driving hi-tech forces behind Israel s economy and is Israel s leading industrial exporter. A significant portion of its projects involve research and development. Exports make up 80% of its activity, and it has ties in 58 countries. So said Itzhak Nissan, President and CEO of IAI, upon receiving the Manager of the Year Award from the Israel Management Center, at a ceremony held on January 19th, This prestigious award is a measure of merit given to exemplary leaders of companies earning $50 million and above in the high-technology industry.

3 4 ARROW 5 excel in all its projects in order to continue to grow and to overcome the current global financial crisis. Between 2006 and 2008 there has been a dramatic increase in all of IAI s business sectors - in sales, in profit, in the amount of orders, and in research and development. Net profit before taxes in the years 2006 and 2007 and in the first three quarters of 2008 was $443 million. In the 12 quarters leading up to September 2008, the company grew an average of 19% annually, with a considerable growth in profits. The growth rate of IAI s net profit reached an average of 51%. To mitigate the impact of the global financial crisis, in recent months, Nissan acted to implement a renewed focus on the cash flow, to sharpen business focus, and to target the competition. We are entering 2009 better prepared for the new business environment, in Israel and abroad, and we are ready to employ the personnel necessary to increase and strengthen output, Nissan said. The young people who join our company will benefit from our wide-ranging efforts regarding research and development. The professional, focused board of directors led by Mr. Yair Shamir, the workers, and the executives all make an important contribution to the accomplishments of IAI, and I feel a great privilege to lead such a company, concluded Nissan. The Arrow Weapon System successfully completed a test on 7 April 2009, and destroyed the target missile which simulated a number of challenging future threats. This is the seventeenth Arrow intercept test, and the eleventh as part of the Arrow System Improvement Program (ASIP), involving collaboration between Israel and the United States. The target missile simulated a number of challenging future threats. The target trajectory simulated an operational scenario and all the weapon s system assemblies performed accordingly. After launch of the target, the weapon system began operation. The Fire Control Radar (FCR) acquired the target, sending data to Battle Management Command and Control (BMC). A defensive intercept plan was issued and the firing command was sent to Improved Arrow Missile Destroys Target in Latest Test of the System IAI s Heron UAV Takes Part in Channel 1 Independence Day Evening Broadcast IAI s Heron Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) was chosen to cover the special Independence Day broadcasts for Israeli national television s Channel 1, which airs a special broadcast each year on the eve of Independence Day. This year s celebrations, on Israel s 61st Independence Day, were broadcast from the Air Force base at Tel Nof, and were hosted by Yehoram Gaon and attended by the Israel Air Force (IAF) Commander-in-Chief, General Ido Nehoshtan. The show also featured well known Israeli artists. The Heron UAV transmitted both day and night images from the control station in realtime to the television broadcasting station, using an infrared night camera to image various sites in Israel, including Haifa, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and the celebrations at the Tel Nof base. The Heron UAV is a leading IAI product used by the IAF, and is used in all branches of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) - air, maritime, and land - as well as by other armies around the world. The Heron weighs over one ton, an indication of IAI s ability to develop and produce a UAV Heron Command & Control Center screen Heron UAV of this size; such a task requires the advanced technologies and professional experience that IAI has accumulated over the last four decades. The Heron can loiter for 48 hours, a revolutionary ability which allows for flexibility and modularity in a variety of missions. The Heron s ability to fly at up to an altitude of 10 kilometers and integrate information from communication satellites (SATCOM) allows it to operate efficiently at long distances. the launcher. The interceptor was then launched towards the target, and performed successfully, eliminating the target. Representatives from the Israel Missile Defense Organization (IMDO) in cooperation with the US Missile Defense Agency (MDA) both took part in this test. The success of this project is a significant accomplishment and an important milestone in developing and improving operational abilities that provide a response to the increasing threat of ballistic missiles in the region. Minister of Defense Mr. Ehud Barak witnessed the launching from an IDF helicopter while on his way back from the south of Israel. During the flight he was updated on the successful launch. Barak stated: The future missile defense system is a vital project for the security of Israel. Combined with the Iron Dome, which also had a successful test last week, it gives Israel enhanced and immediate protection from strategic threats. The Ministry of Defense is working intensively to provide a multi-layered defense system against both missiles and rockets to ensure the safety of Israel s citizens. The Director General of the Ministry of Defense, Mr Pinchas Bochris, stated that the success of the intercept is an important step in developing a projection system against future threats. He also praised the defense industries, the Ministry of Defense and the IDF for their creativity and their cooperation that resulted in a successful test. Israel Aerospace Industries President and CEO, Mr Itzhak Nissan noted: This is a substantial success and challenging test facing the future threats we may face in our region. IAI s MLM Division, as prime contractor, together with other IAI divisions are participating in the Arrow Project to contribute to the security of Israel.

5 8 Barak-8 9 Barak 8: The Full Solution to the Broad Spectrum of Aerial and Missile Threats The modern day battlefield poses numerous challenges to companies specializing in defensive systems whether the threats emanate from air, naval, or land-based sources. As offensive systems become ever more advanced, higher in speed, more precise, and more powerful, the defensive response to these threats now requires the interception and elimination of the threat itself (i.e. missile) or platform launching the threat (i.e. fighter aircraft), thereby requiring that they be no less capable. The new generation Barak-8 Air and Missile Defense weapon system currently provides a complete solution to every type of airborne threat, whether that threat be from aircraft, tactical missiles, helicopters, or unmanned aerial vehicles. The system has two versions - maritime and land-based - each relying on an advanced, phased-array radar integrated with an advanced launch system containing smart missile interceptors, and a state-of-the-art command and control (C2) system, altogether providing full 360 coverage. Barak-8 is unique in that it has a built-in intelligence within the missile battery s C2 system. The C2 system can talk with other missile batteries, with external radars, and with air traffic control systems, creating an optimized scenario for detecting, engaging, and destroying the target. - How is this optimization manifested? Israel Defense Minister Ehud Barak (left) and IAI s President & CEO Itzhak Nissan (right) examines a mockup of the Barak 8 missile developed at IAI as part of a future aerial and naval defense system It is manifested by the threat being automatically neutralized through the most appropriate missile battery launching the missile. Especially impressive is that a radar connected to a given missile battery that may have detected the threat may not necessarily be part of the same battery that will respond to the threat. This allows us to maximize the system s capabilities and create the most optimal interception scenario. It should be noted that the advanced, digital, phased-array radar was specifically developed by IAI Elta Systems, Ltd. - Is the system capable of neutralizing every missile that is launched? The system is designed from the start to intercept planes and tactical missiles such as air-toground missiles and naval anti-ship missiles. The Barak-8 is based on advanced concepts of defense system architecture, including advanced seekers, warheads, high performance maneuvering capabilities, and the ability to be optimally controlled. The missile can receive and process continuous updates on the position and flight trajectory of the target, and use these updates to adjust its own flight to best intercept and destroy the target. The unique missile propulsion system allows the missile to maintain energy, even after it has been airborne for an extended time, and reserve sufficient energy for the end-game or the target s final engagement and hit. It must be remembered that the enemy missile is also trying to maneuver and evade the Barak-8. The battlefield does not only have one or two threats that the Barak-8 must neutralize; in fact, there are a wide range of threats, coming from all directions and creating a number of potential targets, including our own forces airplanes. - How does the system discern all these targets? Everything that was mentioned up until this point applies to any number of threats. Of course, no one battery, no matter how sophisticated, will be able to deal with dozens of missiles simultaneously. Integration and network coordination of resources creates synergy among the batteries and helps to successfully deal with a battlefield saturated with targets. For instance, within a given formation or fleet of naval ships, each equipped with a Barak-8, they communicate with one another through the secure communication channels and data link within the integrated system. In an automated manner, the system knows how to optimally allocate targets throughout various batteries of the naval formation, and among the various batteries of the network; and eliminate every threat, be it missiles, planes, or helicopters. Similarly, land-based versions of the Barak-8 system can be easily and quickly deployed across tens of kilometers between the individually deployed batteries, and provide 360 coverage over the widest possible protected area against cruise missiles, airborne munitions launched from planes or ships, and other threats. - Can the Barak 8 talk to other systems, ones that aren t produced by IAI? Absolutely. The system has the ability to interconnect with other systems and can thereby receive information on the threat from a wide variety of sources. - What stage is the system in currently? It s in its final stages of development, to be completed in IAI already has customers for both the maritime and the land-based defense systems. Barak-8 is unique in that it has a built-in intelligence within the missile battery s C2 system. The C2 system can talk with other missile batteries, with external radars, and with air traffic control systems, creating an optimized scenario for detecting, engaging, and destroying the target The President of the State of Israel, Shimon Peres, observes a Barak 8 weapon system made by IAI, and receives explanations from IAI s President & CEO, Itzhak Nissan
