- The system is operationally active in those countries and provides tangible successes on the battlefield
London. 15 September 2023. Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) has revealed that it has sold its state-of-the-art StarLight Intelligence Platform to two countries in Asia and the Middle East, in deals worth some tens of millions of dollars. StarLight is a Multi-INT intelligence platform and advanced research tool that provides operational intelligence, built and developed by IAI, a world leader in radar, SIGINT, intelligence systems and communications technologies.
StarLight addresses a key challenge facing commanders in the modern battlefield: converting the vast amount of raw data provided by sensors into actionable intelligence, to automate and support operational decision processes – quantities of data that would overwhelm the capacity of human analysts. StarLight collects information from a range of sensors and intelligence sources which include SIGINT, EO/IR, SAR Imaging, LDS, WEBINT and open sources. The system utilizes AI/ML tools and rule engines to convert the data into operational insights such as threat alerts, target generation, and mission planning. Crucially, the system shortens the loop from detection of a threat to response from minutes or hours to seconds, thereby maximizing operational effectiveness. StarLight was developed using an open, agile architecture, allowing easy adoption of new customer applications.
IAI’s President and CEO, Boaz Levy, said: “StarLight is part of IAI’s suite of advanced intelligence solutions. We live in an age of information overload, and the ability to refine high-quality intelligence from a range of sensors, in near real-time – as well as to disseminate key insights to decision makers – is critical. StarLight, which is based on IAI extensive experience in intelligence solutions integrated with unique artificial intelligence technology, is the best answer to all these challenges. The excellent reports we receive from countries that have purchased StarLight, and its rapid integration into the battlefield, shows how effective it is in providing added value to both tactical and strategic intelligence organizations.”
