Lockheed Martin and Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) will jointly promote a Ground Based Air Defense (GBAD) system centered around the Lockheed Martin United Kingdom SkyKeeper and the BARAK MX system.
As part of a new agreement, Lockheed Martin and IAI will promote their technological and manufacturing expertise in air defense solutions that protect military forces and high value assets from missile threats. This new cooperation is a direct result of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between the companies in July 2021 and after a review of relevant business opportunities.
