Elbit Systems is Israel's largest defense electronics company with global leadership in unmanned systems (Hermes drones), C4ISR, electro-optics, and electronic warfare. Demand from Israel itself, NATO members, and allied states is at multi-decade highs given drone-centric warfare lessons from Ukraine and Israel-Iran tensions. Backlog has reached record levels with multi-year visibility. The company is a primary beneficiary of European defense rearmament under increased NATO spending targets.
