Elbit Systems UK Limited

Elbit Systems UK Ltd is the UK subsidiary of the global defence technology group Elbit Systems. Established in 2004 and headquartered in London, the company operates as a UK-based business with its own management, workforce and operations, serving primarily UK defence and security customers. While it forms part of the wider Elbit Systems group, the UK entity emphasises its role as a distinct business operating within the UK defence sector and regulatory framework.

The company develops and delivers advanced defence, aerospace and security technologies across a range of domains, including land, maritime, aviation, communications, intelligence and training systems. Elbit Systems UK works closely with the UK Ministry of Defence and industry partners, providing equipment and services intended to support military capability, operational effectiveness and national security requirements.

Elbit Systems UK has expanded its presence through multiple sites and specialist businesses across the country, supporting programmes related to training, surveillance, communications and battlefield management systems. The company highlights its investment in UK jobs, skills, supply chains and innovation, and notes that many of its employees are veterans or reservists. It describes itself as a long-term partner to the UK Armed Forces, with activities focused on supporting domestic defence needs.

The company is a signatory to the Armed Forces Covenant and states that it recognises the contribution of serving personnel, reservists, veterans and military families. Elbit Systems UK says it is committed to being an armed forces-friendly employer by supporting the recruitment of service leavers and veterans, accommodating reservist commitments where possible, promoting opportunities for military spouses and partners, and engaging with initiatives that benefit the wider Armed Forces community.
