New Satellites and Lunar Lander on Show

Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) will lead Israel’s space exhibit at the International Astronautical Conference (IAC) in Dubai next week.

As the only Israeli pavilion presenting at IAC, IAI will exhibit a range of cutting-edge space solutions, including its leading observation satellites OPTSAT3000 and TECSAR, a new communications mini-satellite concept and a cloud-based ground station, which will be unveiled prior to IAC. The company will also showcase the BERESHEET lunar lander.

Space is a global growth engine, crossing technological, educational, business, and political boundaries. IAI leads Israel’s space industry, from development and manufacturing, through satellites and launchers, to ground stations for satellite control and operations. IAC offers IAI the opportunity to build new relationships with local companies in the UAE and Gulf countries, and to develop new ventures with partners in the local defence industry, government agencies, and academic institutions.

“IAC brings together the greatest minds in the space sector and we are very excited to participate in this event and showcase our latest cutting-edge technologies and insights as Israel’s leader in the sector,” commented Shlomi Sudri, IAI EVP and General Manager of the Space Division. “The space sector is an important field where we can advance regional cooperation and bring to life new collaborations with our neighbors while learning from each other.”
