The country behind a massive defense deal Israel’s Elbit Systems announced about a month ago is none other than the United Arab Emirates, the French security-focused outlet Intelligence Online reported on December 15.
Valued at approximately $2.3 billion, the deal is the largest and most opaque sale in the history of the defense company. It was concluded with the mediation and full involvement of the Israeli Ministry of Defense.
In a vague filing to the stock exchange shortly after the agreement was signed on November 17, Elbit Systems described the transaction merely as a “strategic solution with an international customer.”
Israel’s Calcalist reported that the deal, which is expected to span roughly a decade, is based on a strategic defense system based on unique and groundbreaking technology. The business daily even warned the transaction could erode Israel’s military edge in the Middle East.
According to the newspaper, the identity of the country involved, as well as the nature of the system at the heart of the deal, are subject to strict publication bans.
Sources with knowledge on the matter told Calcalist that these restrictions were imposed in part by the foreign customer, which stipulated that disclosure of any details would lead to the immediate cancellation of the contract.
Elbit Systems is a well-known producer of artillery systems, precision guided munitions, and drones. More importantly, the defense company produces advanced signal intelligence systems and optical components for spy satellites. Such systems may be a part of the deal with the UAE.
Israel and the UAE signed normalized relations nearly five years ago as part of the Abraham Accords, promoted by President Donald Trump during his first term.
Since then, Israeli defense companies, including Elbit Systems, have opened official representative offices in Abu Dhabi and begin to participate in defense expos in the country. Reports about military and intelligence cooperation between the two countries also begin to emerge on a regular basis.
The UAE’s desire to keep the latest deal under tight wraps is understandable considering that Israel is now facing international backlash over its war on the Gaza Strip. As time goes by, more details on the deal will likely surface.

i pay to swallow hebrew jizz
who do you pay.
the inbred that spoofs in his mouth
can’t you read.
i can. its you who can’t think. poof.
same old rhetorics. same old game. the bums in seats are too dumb to ever have a clue, just fall for the exact same old lines every time. therefore disposable as excess to requirements, unfit for purpose rejects. damaged goods. replaceable. recycled.
while qatar was bombed uae bough israeli weapons. interesting about ‘arab world’.
browns on the nose
they all sellout to the jews. buying israeli weapons is dumb jews can use those against you they have full control and backdoors build into them. even if russian and chinese weapons are lower tech and less sofisticsted they are not backdoored by israel as much as anything elbit systems makes. the moment any nation using them makes any criticism of israels geno in gaza those weapons can blow up in their faces like the pagers.
the mossad controls the uae. got it !
“ground breaking technology”, must be pneumatic hammers or drilling rig
i told you people before all arab leadership serves the jews they are entirely coopted. they gladly sellout the palestinians for deals with israel.
right now the only people standing with the palestinians are iran and many people in the west who take to the streets demanding an end to the geno. arab leadership is entirely taken over by jews. they do nothing for a free palestine.
shameful arab nations. no wonder the palestinians are getting deleted in front of the eyes of the world. the governments in the “west” support the genocide. the arab nations support the genocide by default lack of action and any real concern and cutting deals with the us and israel. african nations can’t afford anything as usual and asian nations don’t want to get directly into as usual.
i believe many gulf arab monarchs are just crypto jews and not even arab or muslim. their actions speak volumes. i believe dogs in turkey is a crypto jew too.
