Description: ESLT Elbit Systems December 17, 2025

Elbit Systems Ltd. (NASDAQ:ESLT) designs, manufactures, and integrates airborne, land, and naval defense solutions for a global customer base that includes the U.S. military, foreign military sales programs, homeland-security agencies, and commercial aviation operators.

The firm operates through five segments-Aerospace; C4I & Cyber; ISTAR & Electronic Warfare; Land; and Elbit Systems of America (ESA)-offering a breadth of products such as unmanned aerial systems, precision-guided-munition sensors, electro-optical lasers, cyber-intelligence platforms, and survivability kits for armored vehicles.

Key metrics from FY 2023 show revenue of roughly $5.9 billion, an operating margin near 9 %, and an order backlog exceeding $8.5 billion, reflecting strong demand driven by rising U.S. defense appropriations (≈4 % YoY growth) and Israel’s sustained defense-spending target of ~3 % of GDP. The global shift toward autonomous and network-centric warfare further underpins growth prospects for Elbit’s UAV and C4ISR portfolios.
