Elbit Systems UK CEO Martin Fausset said: “We are pleased to confirm continued successful progress in implementing Elbit Systems UK’s strategy.

“Elbit Systems UK already has an impressive footprint across the UK, providing a range of advanced systems for the UK Ministry of Defence.

“This re-organisation will allow us to guarantee and invest in the knowledge, skills and technical expertise required to support the British Armed Forces now, and in the future.”

The newly designated Elbit Systems UK Aerospace and Simulation Business Unit provides advanced technology solutions to the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD).

These technologies range from advanced simulation capabilities such as the Joint Fires Synthetic Trainer (JFST) and Interim Combined Arms Virtual Simulation (Deployable) (ICAVS (D)).

The company’s Aerospace and Simulation Business Unit also serves as the synthetic integrator for the Fisher Consortium to the UK Royal Navy through the Selborne Programme.
