Israel Defense, in association with the Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), is proud to present a new episode of its new podcast: Defense Matters | A podcast about defense, technology, and the powers that move them.  

In Episode 10, the last of this season, Host Aron Heller speaks with Carice Witte, Founder & Executive Director of SIGNAL - Sino-Israel Global Network & Academic Leadership.   

Witte and Heller delved deep into the fascinating and complex relationship between Israel and China. They discussed China’s long-term goals, executed through its Belt & Road Initiative as well as its Maritime Silk Road, and Israel’s role not only as a tech superpower but as a bridge to the Middle East, the OECD and the US.  

Joining us for the Gamechanger segment is Asher Abish, Regional Director of Marketing and Sales in ELTA’s Land Division. Abish focuses on IAI’s new gunfire-detection system, the “Othello-P”, explaining the needs behind its development, as well as its practical implications in the battlefield.
