RADA Will Deliver an Upgrade to the RNLAF That Will Provide Crash  Survivability
Capabilities to the FACE(TM) Systems Used on Board Its F-16 Fleet

Monday January 6, 10:46 am ET

NETANYA,  Israel, Jan. 6  /PRNewswire-FirstCall/  -- RADA Electronic  Industries
Ltd.  (Nasdaq:  RADIF - News),  today  announced that the Royal  Netherlands Air
Force  ("RNLAF")  ordered an upgrade to RADA's FACE Flight Data Recorder  system
installed onboard its fleet of F-16 aircraft.

The  upgrade  enables  the  transfer  of data  from the FACE to a Voice and Data
Recorder ("VADR"), a crash survivable memory unit developed by Smiths Aerospace.
This  capability  will  allow the RNLAF to  investigate  mishaps  involving  the
loss-of-aircraft and aircrew.

FACE is a flight data recorder  operated by the RNLAF to monitor the  structural
fatigue of the  aircraft,  monitor  engine and  avionics.  The FACE  serves as a
training and operational tool to debrief pilots following flight missions.

FACE is currently  installed  on the F-16  aircraft of the RNDAF and the Belgian
Air Force. A FACE unit is currently being installed on the F-16 MLU prototype of
the Portuguese Air Force.
