Rafael is partnered with Raytheon on Iron Dome development and production. The team <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/land\/2020\/08\/03\/raytheon-and-rafael-to-build-iron-dome-in-us\/\" target=\"_blank\">has plans to open up a production facility<\/a> to build the systems in the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The process to receive the clearance took multiple years. RSGS became a Limited Liability Company in September 2019 and received an employer identification number in November. RSGS signed a lease to establish its headquarters in Bethesda, Maryland, in January 2020. The process for the clearance began in earnest in April 2020 and hit snags during the coronavirus pandemic. Part of the process required the handling of classified documents, which meant the need for in-person work in a controlled office space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Receiving the capability allows RSGS to \u201cAmericanize\u201d its technologies, Anderson said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt now gives Rafael, as a foreign company, via their American subsidiary, a means to work classified programs within Rafael without having to rely on a joint venture or some other partnership or business agreement,\u201d he said, while noting that he expects those types of relationships to continue as RSGS is considered a small, startup American company and those arrangements are still beneficial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For instance, Rafael is a sub-contractor on Oshkosh Defense\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/land\/2021\/10\/11\/us-army-gets-its-first-look-at-bradley-replacement-options\/\" target=\"_blank\">Optionally Manned Fighting Vehicle<\/a> design team, bringing artificial intelligence technology to the effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/land\/2021\/07\/23\/us-army-chooses-competitors-to-design-infantry-fighting-vehicle-replacement\/\" target=\"_blank\">OMFV program<\/a> is in a preliminary design competition phase where five teams are competing to develop an initial design of what will replace the Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAs we work on programs like OMFV, when it gets to the classified phase of a program, RSGS can now do that for Rafael as part of Rafael versus either being excluded from it or relying on another partner who is not the same company,\u201d Anderson explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Being able to participate in classified portions of the competition means RSGS will be able to provide a deeper level of information on Rafael\u2019s technologies and will be able to translate that into how those technologies meet program requirements, Anderson said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rafael hopes with the new clearance to be able to expand its missile, air defense and base defense, counter-UAS, lethality, AI and machine learning, situational awareness, sensing, force protection, lethality and communications and networking portfolios in the U.S., Anderson listed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAlong the modernization priorities for the Army, along with the joint-counter UAS office, just think of the programs that are aligned with those different offices and how that changes the ability to work in those portfolios where before we could not,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rafael Systems Global Sustainment&#8217;s new US clearance opens doors for Israeli company to do business in
