Elbit Systems wird u.a. im UN Bericht “From the economy of occupation to the economy of genocide” der UN Sonderberichterstatterin Francesca Albanese betrachtet:
- The military-industrial complex has become the economic backbone of the State.50 Between 2020 and 2024, Israel was the eighth largest arms exporter worldwide.51 The two most prominent Israeli weapons companies – Elbit Systems, established as a public-private partnership and later privatized, and State-owned Israel Aerospace Industries – are among the top 50 arms manufacturers globally.52 Since 2023, Elbit Systems has cooperated closely on Israeli military operations,53 embedding key staff in the Ministry of Defense,54 and was awarded the 2024 Israeli Defense Prize. Elbit Systems and Israel Aerospace Industries provide a critical domestic supply of weaponry,55 and reinforce Israeli military alliances through arms exports56 and joint development of military technology.
- Drones, hexacopters and quadcopters have also been omnipresent killing machines in the skies of Gaza.68 Drones largely developed and supplied by Elbit Systems and Israel Aerospace Industries have long flown alongside fighter jets, surveilling Palestinians and delivering target intelligence.69 In the past two decades, with support from these companies and collaborations with institutions such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology,70 drones used by Israel acquired automated weapons systems and the ability to fly in swarm formation.71
Elbit findet weitere Erwähnung im Bericht im Kontext von Joint-Ventures, Verschleierung militärischer Güter und Aktionen als Zivil und der EInbindung in formell zivile Forschungsprogramme an europäischen Universitäten.
