Elbit Systems DIGITAL

Enterprise Technology Stack & Vendor Relationships

• Elbit Systems Ltd. is an Israeli high-technology company operating principally in defence and homeland-security programmes through Elbit Systems and its subsidiaries ¹.
• Its C4I and Cyber segment markets C4ISR systems, data links, radio communications equipment, cyber-intelligence solutions, autonomous solutions and homeland-security solutions ^{2, 3}.
• Elbit reported that C4I and Cyber revenue increased 11% year-on-year in 2024, principally due to sales of radio and command-and-control systems ^{2, 4}.
• The reviewed corporate, product and partnership materials do not identify a licensing, subscription, deployment or integration relationship between Elbit and Check Point, Wiz, SentinelOne, CyberArk, NICE, Verint, Claroty, Palo Alto Networks, or another specified Israeli-origin enterprise-software vendor ^{2, 3}.
• No public evidence identified.
• The reviewed materials also do not identify a named commercial IT outsourcer, digital-transformation consultancy or systems integrator engaged by Elbit for a major enterprise programme ^{2, 3}.

Surveillance, Biometrics & Retail Technology

• The 9 February 2026 Elbit announcement describes “border protection” and integrated C4ISR capabilities within IDF digitization contracts, without identifying facial-recognition or biometric products, affected persons, data stores or third-party technology suppliers ⁵.
• The reviewed disclosures and targeted vendor materials do not establish Elbit use of Israeli-origin retail facial-recognition, gait-analysis, loss-prevention, frictionless-checkout, behavioural-analytics, predictive-policing, sentiment-analysis or workforce-surveillance products ^{2, 3, 6}.
• Who Profits characterises Elbit as a supplier and developer of checkpoint data-collection systems and electronic-fence systems, including work it attributes to an IMOD contract around occupied East Jerusalem ⁷.
• Those Who Profits assertions remain civil-society leads rather than independently verified deployment findings because the underlying contract and technical records were not retrieved in the research scope ⁷.
• AFSC Investigate likewise reports Elbit surveillance systems at Palestinian checkpoints and border barriers, but this account was not treated as independent confirmation of individual contracts ⁸.

Cloud Infrastructure, Data Residency & Sovereign Cloud Participation

• Israel’s Ministry of Finance describes Project Nimbus as a government cloud programme intended to provide cloud services to government, the security system and other Israeli economic entities, and identifies Google’s local cloud zone rather than Elbit ⁹.
• The reviewed procurement and corporate sources do not evidence Elbit participation in Project Nimbus ^{2, 9, 3}.
• The reviewed materials do not establish that Elbit operates, leases or colocates commercial data-centre infrastructure in Israel, or that it separately markets data-residency, sovereign-cloud or resilience services to Israeli state institutions ^{2, 9, 3}.
• Elbit product materials describe C4I, cyber-intelligence and homeland-security functions but do not disclose the location, routing, retention or legal-access arrangements for processed data ^{3, 6}.
• The 2025 Form 20-F similarly does not provide Israeli cloud-data-routing or data-residency arrangements in the reviewed disclosures ¹.

Defence, Intelligence & Security Sector Technology Relationships

• In 2023, Elbit announced cumulative contracts of approximately US$130 million with Israel’s Directorate of Defense Research and Development for advanced IDF communications systems and described itself as a partner in the IDF’s “digital maneuver” effort ¹⁰.
• On 9 February 2026, Elbit announced DDR&D/MAFAT contracts exceeding US$100 million for fifth-generation IDF digitization capabilities ⁵.
• The announced 2026 scope includes command and control for headquarters and manoeuvring and attacking forces, multi-domain connectivity, C4ISR, border protection and “digital fire” ⁵.
• The public announcement does not supply sufficient technical detail to distinguish civilian-capable C4ISR components from weapons-specific components, while its “digital fire” element is purpose-built for military effects ⁵.
• Elbit reported more than US$5 billion in IMOD contract awards during 2024 without allocating that total by system or identifying every underlying contract ^{2, 4}.
• The Israeli Ministry of Defense states that Elbit participated in the David’s Sling project and a separate classified intelligence project developed with its R&D directorate, the IDF Intelligence Directorate and Air Force, the ISA, and Elbit ¹¹.
• The Ministry’s public Israel Defense Prize notice does not specify Elbit’s particular technology contribution or data role in the classified intelligence project ¹¹.
• In 2026, IMOD announced an approximately US$130 million agreement with Elbit to integrate command-and-control, avionics, electronic-warfare and DIRCM systems on 12 Israeli Air Force CH-53K helicopters ¹².
• IMOD also announced multi-year orders exceeding US$200 million for Elbit-manufactured aerial munitions in 2026, which are military materiel rather than general-purpose digital infrastructure ¹³.

AI, Algorithmic & Autonomous Systems

• Elbit publicly markets autonomous and cyber-intelligence solutions through C4I and Cyber, but the reviewed sources do not identify a civilian data source, specific AI model, training dataset, model host or state-agency AI contract for those offerings ³.
• The February 2026 contracts include C4ISR and “digital fire,” but the announcement does not state that Elbit supplied autonomous target-generation, target-identification or automated-lethality systems ⁵.
• The disclosed “digital fire” component is a military follow-up lead and is not verified evidence of Digital AI provision ⁵.
• The reviewed corporate, procurement and UN materials do not identify an Elbit AI model trained on civilian population data, intercepted communications or surveillance-derived data from Israel or the occupied territories ^{1, 2, 14, 3}.
• Elbit opened a 400-square-metre robotics laboratory in Beer Sheva in March 2024 that it says supports product characterisation, platform and sensor selection, algorithmic programming, robotic execution, virtual simulation and 3D printing ¹⁵.

Technology Ecosystem & R&D Footprint

• Elbit states that its Beer Sheva robotics laboratory is operated by the C4I & Cyber CTO unit and connected to the local science-and-commerce district and Ben-Gurion University talent pipeline ¹⁵.
• The 2025 Form 20-F reports an Israeli subsidiary operating a high-technology semiconductor manufacturing facility for electronic integration and assembly of thermal-imaging detectors and laser diodes, without identifying the subsidiary or facility location ¹.
• Elbit identifies major wholly owned subsidiaries including Elbit Systems of America, Elbit Systems Electro-Optics Elop, Elbit Systems C4I and Cyber, Elbit Systems EW and SIGINT–Elisra, Elbit Systems Land and IMI Systems ¹.

• The reviewed sources do not identify a named acquisition, strategic investment, venture-fund investment, patent arrangement or co-development agreement between Elbit and an Israeli civilian technology company or research institution specifically relevant to this Digital lane ^{1, 2, 3, 15}.

Civil Society Scrutiny & Regulatory History

• Elbit’s controlling shareholder is Federmann Enterprises Ltd., which the 2026 AGM proxy describes as holding approximately 41.3% of Elbit directly and indirectly, and identifies Michael Federmann as its controlling shareholder ¹⁶.
• David Federmann has served as Elbit’s board chair since August 2023 and is identified by Elbit as Michael Federmann’s son ¹⁷.
• The UN Special Rapporteur’s report A/HRC/59/23 states that Elbit cooperated closely on Israeli military operations since 2023, embedded key staff in the Ministry of Defense and received the 2024 Israeli Defense Prize ¹⁴.
• Those UN-report assertions should not be relied on for granular personnel or contract attribution without obtaining the report’s cited underlying records ¹⁴.
• The supplied document-scoped review found Elbit named in A/HRC/59/23 but not in the reviewed full text of the 2023 or 2025 OHCHR settlement-business database updates ¹⁴.
• The Project Nimbus and surveillance discussion in the supplied full-text version of A/HRC/59/23 does not identify Elbit as a Nimbus provider ¹⁸.
• Who Profits attributes the Rotem-Reut border and checkpoint registration systems to Elbit and states that the system connects with the Civil Administration, military, police and prison service, but the underlying tender and FOI material were not independently retrieved ¹⁹.
• The BDS Movement identifies Elbit as a Military Embargo campaign target and calls for divestment and supply-chain action, which reflects the campaign organization’s position rather than independently established findings ²⁰.
• A 2023 UK parliamentary written-evidence submission stated that East Sussex Pension Fund no longer held Elbit exposure after portfolio changes in February 2021, but this is evidence of a submission rather than a parliamentary finding or independently verified rationale ²¹.
• The focused review did not identify a completed regulator enforcement action, sanctions-related investigation or court determination specifically concerning Elbit’s technology sales or services to Israeli state entities ^{1, 16, 17, 14}.
