Arotech Receives $10 million David Order

Arotech Backlog now at $42 million

June 29, 2009 – Arotech Corporation (NasdaqGM: ARTX) announced today that its Armor Division has received a new order valued at $10 million for its David Light Armored Vehicle.

This order includes an option on the part of the purchaser for a similar number of additional vehicles, and was received three weeks after the Company announced a separate $2 million order for Davids. With these orders, Arotech’s backlog stands at $42 million.

The David is a lightweight armored vehicle based on a Land Rover heavy duty Defender platform. The David has been selected by the Israel Defense Forces as its standard armored reconnaissance and patrol vehicle, and is operating hundreds of them already.

The David has been involved in numerous terror attacks, withstanding assault weapons and various explosive devices, saving the lives of its occupants.

“This is another major order for MDT,” said Robert Ehrlich, Arotech’s Chairman and CEO. “The David has proven itself both in battlefield operations and as a strong product line for the Armor Group.”
