SPOTLIGHT: Unpacking the opportunities to enhance Australia’s defence capabilities, with Yehuda Lahav, Israel Aerospace Industries

In this episode of the Defence Connect Spotlight podcast, we are joined by Yehuda Lahav of Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) to discuss the growing synergies identified in Australia’s Defence Strategic Review. 

• We discuss the company’s ambitions and opportunities for the Australian enterprise, particularly given the nation’s increased focus on integrated air and missile defence capabilities. 

• We also highlight the way IAI is operating in Australia and the company’s emphasis on supporting the development of Australia’s Sovereign Defence Industrial Capability Priorities and the broad ambition of the Defence Industry Development Strategy. 

• Finally, we discuss what sets Israeli defence innovation and industrial capacity apart from its Western counterparts and the methodology, processes and capacity that provide Israel with a qualitative edge over potential adversaries.
