Los tres mayores fabricantes de aeronaves no tripuladas (UAV) de Israel han remitido ofertas a la Fuerza Aérea Chilena para cumplir con sus requerimientos.
Dos Aerostar UAV fueron utilizados en las labores de recuperación del terremoto sufrido a principios de 2010.
Aeronautics ofrece el Aerostar C, Elbit Systems el Hermes 450 y el Hermes 900. Israel Aerospace Industries ofrece el Heron.
Chile ya adquirió de IAI Elta en 1993 un Boeing 707 Condor de vigilancia equipado con radar Phalcon de alerta temprana.
Oficiales chilenos ya han visitado a los tres fabricantes para examinar los modelos.

Israel's three major manufacturers of unmanned air vehicles have each submitted proposals in a bid to meet the future requirements of the Chilean air force.
Two UAV Aerostar UAVs were flown by Israeli crews in Chile last March over areas recovering from an earthquake. The nation's air force then asked several manufacturers to submit proposals for operational systems.
Among the Israeli bidders, Aeronautics is offering its Aerostar C, while sources suggest that Elbit Systems is promoting its Hermes 450 and may also offer its larger Hermes 900 design. Israel Aerospace Industries is also pitching its Heron system.
Chile in 1993 acquired one Boeing 707 Condor surveillance aircraft equipped with a Phalcon airborne early warning radar supplied by IAI's Elta Systems subsidiary.
Officials from the nation's air force have recently visited the three Israeli companies vying for its potential UAV order and received briefings about their respective designs.
