Israeli defense exports hit record $19.2 billion — fifth consecutive record year
The Defense Ministry's SIBAT directorate announced 2025 defense exports of $19.2 billion — a nearly 30% surge, more than double five years ago and quadruple a decade ago. Combat-proven Israeli air-defense, missile and electro-optics systems led demand, with 36% to Europe, 32% to Asia-Pacific, 15% to the Middle East (Abraham Accords partners) and 13% to North America. Government-to-government deals alone reached $10 billion, a separate all-time high.
