Survey: Israel is the world's top drones exporter

According to research, Israel is the world's top exporter of drones. Over the past eight years, the country has generated $4.6 billion in sales, providing drones a number of countries from England to India.

Sales of unmanned aerial vehicles account for 10% of the total sales of military equipment of Israel. In 2008, the country earned $ 150 million on drone sales, this figure increased significantly in 2009, to $ 650 million, and sales reached a record level in 2010, $ 979 million.

In subsequent years, their level fell somewhat, and by 2012 Israel received about $ 260 million, which, nevertheless, cannot be called a small amount. It should be noted, however, that the latter figure does not include a major modernization deal with India. drones - if this deal is taken into account, then the above figure will increase by $100 million.

More than half of the total number of drones exported from 2005 of the year to 2012 of the year were sold to Europe, in particular, to the UK, Germany, Poland, the Netherlands and Spain.

One-third of exports from 2005 to 2012 were sold to countries such as Azerbaijan and India. About 11% of overseas sales, totaling $ 508 million, sent to customers from South America. The US needed the entire 3.9% of Israeli drones for the aforementioned period. African countries also received 1.5% of total exports, paying $ 69 million.

Most of the exported aircraft were intended for military use. Only a few of them were acquired in order to control and maintain security in cities.

It is expected that Israel’s profits from the sale of drones will grow in the coming years, as Israeli firms continue to sign all new contracts with foreign customers.

Whatever news is about Israel! Do not welcome to Israel's "Military Review"

Well, what can you do if Israel is in the top 5 leaders in the export of weapons .... Don’t worry, you have oil and beautiful women, we have the brains and the ability to work. I do not know which is better)))

Well, what can you do if Israel is in the top 5 arms export leaders.

Actually, according to SIPRI, Israel is in 11th place, and Russia is in second place, immediately after the United States.

SIPRI can be ignored. A lot of and actively shine, but the counting system is absolutely crazy.

you want to say that the Russian 2nd place in the export of arms is so much less than the 5th place of the Jewish?!, and it can be argued that we have no weapons ?! you just don’t tear your hair, but we have weapons so that to protect our women, to protect our "brains", to protect our hardworking people, to protect our natural resources, and you are a provocateur like most people with little "dignity".

Have you seen "Military Review of Russia" somewhere? And why is there such a negative attitude towards Israel at once? If the CIS countries make the best drones in the world, then they will write such articles about us, and so far there is nothing to brag about

[svp67]

Maybe it’s time for us to strain and squeeze Israel on this pedestal ...

[Yeraz]

You will have to work hard. The Israel leader has vast experience.
It is not clear why Belarusians managed to build an UAV and even like Vietnam is going to buy, but in Russia there is silence, well, or on paper.

Belarusians have drones that only sell to Vietnam

Eh, no matter what you say, the Israeli techies are great. That's who needs to learn from, to build a UAV.

[Tourist Breakfast]

So already:


OJSC "OPK" Oboronprom "in its press release dated January 9, 2013 informs about successful tests of the first unmanned aerial vehicles" Forpost "assembled at OJSC" Ural Plant of Civil Aviation "(UZGA, part of the OPK" Oboronprom ") in Yekaterinburg and "Zastava", which are, respectively, the Israeli Searcher Mk II and Bird Eye 400 vehicles designed and manufactured by Israel Aerospaces Industries (IAI) corporation.

The press release says that "tests of UAVs" Forpost "and" Zastava "have been conducted at the Salka flight base near Yekaterinburg since the beginning of December 2012. Despite extreme weather conditions (on some days the temperature at the base dropped to -30˚ C, and under conditions of real flights at altitudes of 2 thousand meters it reached -50 системыC), the UAV systems operate normally and work without failures.

What's the news? In general, the more drones, the higher the demand for air defense systems, including promising ones.

Until now, the vaunted Israeli "Iron Dome" made a mistake. India refused to buy this offspring from Israel. And the Americans put the Patriots on the border with Syria in Jordan. Mozhe to protect Israel?

The difference between the Iron Dome and the Patriot is roughly the same as that between the Shell and the S-300. They are designed for different tasks.
In addition, Israel has its own Patriots.

[Maitre]

Iron dome tactical missile defense system designed to protect against unguided tactical missiles at ranges from 4 to 70 kilometers. India has other sizes, they are interested in protection from OTR of a radius of 500 km

Indians dumped as always. In addition, they have points where such protection, yes, is needed.

NOT SAM flies at 70 km, and SAM strikes ballistic targets launched from a distance of 70 km. Therefore, a senior complex "David's Sling" is being created for missiles with a large radius.

this is just a cunning assumption that misleads many
the ability of a missile system to shoot down targets is primarily limited by technical characteristics, and not by the abstract range of launching a target

- He doesn’t introduce specialists, they understand what they mean, if you are confused, then these are gaps in your education.

TTX Tamirs (LCD missile) are known. The protected perimeter is 12 * 12 km or about 150 km * 2. And the flight range is appropriate (+/- with intensive maneuvering).

Quote: olp

ability to shoot down air defense missiles is primarily limited by technical characteristics

- exactly. And this is due to the characteristics of the LCD radar, which I suspect is made on the basis of an artillery radar and does not see BR launched from a greater distance. Although not everything is clear to me in this matter, since all the air defense systems including Hets, Patriot and everything else the Israelis have tied into one information system for a long time. But the direct target designation of the missile is transmitted by the LCD radar, so the Tamirs cannot yet intercept missiles traveling along a higher trajectory. However, if you blurted out by simply reflecting on the word Israel, then I apologize. Then, keep spraying. Reality and combat application of the system to such a reflection have nothing to do. LCD in a real combat situation proved to be better than the developers themselves expected. Nice typewriter.

[PLO]

- He doesn’t introduce specialists, they understand what they mean, if you are confused, then these are gaps in your education.

to any specialist, this phrase will say absolutely nothing about the technical characteristics of the complex

this is due to the characteristics of the LCD radar, which I suspect is based on an artillery radar and does not see BR launched from a greater distance.

you'd better not say that
the radar sees the targets not because they are called BR or depending on the range of their launch, the detection range primarily depends on the ESR of the target, then the overview of any ground-based radar is limited to the radio horizon (~ 40 km) so the LCD absolutely does not matter at what distance the target will be launched from 10km, 70km or 200km, if at the entrance to the affected area the target will have acceptable characteristics, then the missile system will

and all this verbiage about BR with a launch range of up to 70km gives a poor idea of ​​the capabilities of the complex

[Rioter]

Quote: olp

limited to the radio horizon

- for the detection of low-flying maize and a radio horizon of 40 km. And for ballistic purposes going along a BALLISTIC trajectory, what is such a radio horizon? Go to school to study the section of ballistics, you look to find out what a ballistic trajectory is.

[PLO]

if you were in school at one time, you would know that they don’t teach ballistics at school, so exert yourself a bit, remember what planet Earth looks like, what is a ballistic trajectory, and most importantly, remember that a radio horizon always exists

[Rioter]

Young man, do not fool me. A radio horizon always exists, but it doesn’t interfere with detecting ballistic targets at ranges of many and many more than 40 km, unlike cruise missiles that walk along a low trajectory.

[Rioter]

And yet, I studied at school for a long time. But is education really so degraded? I remember that the basics of ballistics are in the course of kinematics.

[PLO]

Young man, do not fool me.

ok I won’t, you are doing very well

Now tell me how a radar located at any point on the earth’s surface will see the entire trajectory of the target?

, unlike cruise missiles that sneak along a low trajectory.

so that you know for the common development: cruise missiles can jail along different trajectories

all will not be. But as soon as the rocket rises over the radio horizon, it will immediately fall into the radar's field of vision.

cruise missiles can wander along different paths

may be different. But the most advanced ones, not just for fun, cling to the ground, but just not to catch missile defense once again. And the penny that will break along a high path is worthless. They will look at it long before the arrival and beat the miserable sinister things, they will not lead them with their ears. But in general, the topic is not about the KR and the BR, we spread a clear offtopic. Therefore, I propose to disperse with the world until we meet in the comments on the profile article.

[PLO]

in this case, tell me why the LCD can shoot down the BR with a maximum range of 70km, but can not shoot down the BR with a range of for example 90km?

you see how you sorted everything out, but stupid designers didn’t study at schools, don’t know ballistics with kinematics, and everything gives their missiles (for example, the same PCR) the opportunity to move along low, high and combined paths

Because he will not see her already. Since she will already have too high a trajectory. That is why I assumed that the LCD radar was being doped from an artillery radar. Did you even read my post from which the debate began?

[PLO]

Because he will not see her already.

fool included? cleverly)
I can draw you hundreds of trajectories in which at the same distance from the observation point, the height of the rocket with a lower maximum range will be higher than the height of the rocket with a larger maximum range

that the LCD radar was being doped from an artillery radar.

First, give a definition of artillery radar, what is its fundamental difference if you impose such restrictions on it?
