Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) unveiled on Sunday a radar system named TERRA, which is capable of early-warning detection and accurate tracking of very long-range targets.

TERRA has been operating for two years already, in the service of a client that IAI declined to name.

IAI's subsidiary, ELTA Systems, which has built the radars for all of Israel's air defense systems, unveiled Terra at a security facility in southern Israel on Sunday.

The system is made up of two radars: The UTRA UHF band system, which ELTA unveiled earlier this year, and the new SPECTRA S-band system, which ELTA officially introduced to the international market on Sunday.

Russians who moved to Israel brought with them their excellent knowledge of mathematics and physics, critical to the development of systems such as this one.

Fazman: You are factually incorrect. Russian emigres, not Russia the state. You seem to be confused by the distinction.
