Elbit Systems of America, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Elbit Systems Ltd. will present its latest concept in closed hatches warfare in booth #4025 at the upcoming AUSA exhibition set to take place in Washington DC from October 5th - 7th 2009.

A multimedia presentation featuring live actors will depict real-life combat situations, operational scenarios and how the company's solutions and systems enable totally integrated closed hatches warfare capabilities. The virtual presentation will allow viewers to experience dynamic combat missions and operational scenarios with dramatic special effects replicating how the systems work in fully realistic views.

Whether deployed in combat, low intensity conflict or peacekeeping operations, Elbit Systems of America's innovative, practical solutions allow units to operate successfully in complex conflicts and urban environments. Furthermore, they assure an increase in security and protection, while enabling soldiers to fight as effectively under closed hatches as in exposed conditions.

The following will be on display at the Elbit Systems of America booth:
