Visitors to the 2025 Paris Air Show may have noticed restricted access around the stands of Israeli defense companies. Barriers and security measures were implemented, limiting close-up views of the company's displays. This restricted setup was particularly noticeable in an otherwise open exhibition environment.
This gallery provides a glimpse of IAI, Rafael and Elbit Systems' presence beyond the barriers.
