NETANYA, Israel, July 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- RADA Electronic Industries Ltd.

Commenting on the selection, Maj. Gen. (Res.) Herzle Bodinger, RADA's Chief Executive Officer said, "This award further strengthens our excellent relationship with Smiths, that was established over 8 years ago and is currently manifested in joint development and production programs, as well as marketing activities. The Lockheed selection indicates that our strategy in penetrating the US market through cooperation with American partners is correct."
Zvi Alon, RADA's V.P. of Business Development said, "This award is the first time when a RADA developed unit is selected to be part of the baselineF-16 configuration. We are proud to have our products installed on both Lockheed Martin Aeronautics and the Boeing Company aircraft".
