Deutsche Rüstungsexporte nach Israel und die Region

Auch Technologien von Rheinmetall, beispielsweise Panzerkanonen, sind in Israel präsent. Die Munition in den in Gaza eingesetzten 155-mm-Panzerhaubitzen werden von General Dynamics in den USA und Rheinmetall hergestellt.[8] Das Unternehmen ist außerdem an der Entwicklung von ferngesteuerter Präzisionsmunition gemeinsam mit dem israelischen Munitionsproduzenten UVision sowie an der Entwicklung und Herstellung von Radhaubitzen gemeinsam mit Israels größten privaten Waffenhersteller, Elbit Systems, beteiligt.[9]

Seit Jahren liefert das Augsburger Unternehmen Renk Schalt-, Wende- und Lenkgetriebe für die aktuelle Version des israelischen Merkava-Kampfpanzers (Mk IV).[10] Das Unternehmen MTU mit Sitz in Friedrichshafen stellt Motoren für israelische Kriegsschiffe und Panzer her, u.a. für den oben genannten Merkava-Panzer Mk IV. Auch der Rüstungs- und Sensorikhersteller Hensoldt mit Hauptsitz in Bayern ist ein wichtiger Liefer- und Handelspartner des israelischen Militärs. Laut einem Bericht der Süddeutschen Zeitung gibt es verschiedene Kooperationen zwischen Hensoldt und der Israel Aerospace Industries sowie dem israelischen Staatsunternehmen Rafael Advanced Defense Systems.

Israel revolutionized Azerbaijan’s drone arsenal. Are the weapons working?

(21.07.2020)

The Orbiter 1K is what is known as a “loitering munition,” or kamikaze drone. The drone behaves like a drone, hovering around, until it finds a target and then slams into it like a cruise missile. In February 2019, Aeronautics reportedly completed new sales to Azerbaijan. The country has a hunger for Israeli kamikaze-style drones. The Washington Post reported in 2016 that it used an IAI (Israel Aerospace Industries) Harop against Armenians as well. Armenia has complained about the 2016 incident.

Israel has been selling military equipment to Ukraine for over two decades, and with the election of Jewish comedian and novice politician Volodymyr Zelensky, there is a good chance to increase defense ties between the two countries.
