IAI and the Security of IsraelEstablished in 1953 as Bedek Aviation Company - a governmental institute for aviation - Israel Aerospace Industries started out as an all-purpose service and supplies provider, specializing in air defense solutions. In the decades since, the company has grown to become a world leader in both the defense and commercial markets, developing, producing and delivering state-of-the-art technologies and systems across a range of domains, including air, land, sea, space, cyber, homeland security and ISR.Remember the past, live the present and trust the future (Aba Kovner)Early Years60's70's80's90's00's10's20'sEarly Years1953IAI is established as the Governmental Institute for Aviation, or Bedek Aviation Company.

Only three complete prototypes were built before the Israeli Government voted to discontinue development due to concerns over costs. Nevertheless, the project illustrated the advanced capabilities of IAI, and many of the aircraft’s components went on to be made commercially available. Furthermore, much of the technical knowhow accumulated during the development of the Lavi contributed to the achievement of Israel’s first launch of a satellite into space in 1988.19861988Israel’s first reconnaissance satellite, the Ofek 1, is launched by an Israeli launcher, the Shavit, making Israel the eighth nation to achieve an indigenous launch.
