Elbit said it will provide components including large area displays, engine fuel indicators, upfront control panels and Head Up Displays, in addition to associated line replaceable units.
“We are supremely proud to be trusted by Boeing and the US Air Force to supply these mission critical products and vital training systems,” said Raanan Horowitz, president and CEO of Elbit’s American subsidiary Elbit Systems of America. “Future pilots will greatly benefit from the revolutionary flight training capabilities featured in the T-X.”
The company will also supply air and ground datalinks, enabling the T-X’s onboard virtual avionics and integrated Live, Virtual & Constructive training capabilities. The technology simulates advanced avionics, sensors and weapons utilized by fifth-generation fighter jets like the F-22 and F-35, enabling T-X pilots to virtually operate those systems will flying T-X aircraft.

Arno's commentary
Israel’s technology in military-related equipment is second to none. They have the experience firsthand. Their engineers and scientists work hand-in-hand with the defense department. The United States will greatly benefit from technology developed and created in Israel.
We are reminded of Romans 15:27: “It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things.” The Gentile world indeed has been enriched by “their spiritual things”; but here in this case, it is Israel who ministers to the US in “carnal things.”
