Israel's arms exports hit new record high

Israel's defense exports reached a new historic peak in 2025, exceeding $19 billion.

According to The Times of Israel, cited by Report, total defense exports amounted to $19.2 billion, representing an increase of nearly 30% compared to the previous year.

The growth was driven mainly by exports of missile systems, air defense systems, and missile defense technologies.

According to the information, Israel has set a new record for defense exports for the fifth consecutive year. Over the past five years, exports of military equipment have more than doubled, and over the past decade have increased fourfold.

The largest share of export contracts - 29% - came from missile systems, rocket artillery, and air defense technologies. There was also significant growth in demand for surveillance systems and electro-optical equipment.

Israel remains one of the world's largest arms exporters, with record figures recorded amid ongoing military operations since October 2023 in several theaters, including Gaza, Lebanon, and tensions with Iran.
