Kenya is in advanced negotiations to acquire Rafael's advanced anti-air SPYDER system, according to a report by Globes.
The SPYDER system is a mobile and fast acting system capable of engaging aircraft, helicopters, unmanned air vehicles, drones, cruise missiles and precision-guided munitions.
If the deal goes through, it will mean Rafael is penetrating into the African arms market, after having sold just 1% of its equipment to countries in the continent.
Israel's reputation for anti-air defense systems, buttressed by the successful defense against Iran's drone and missile attack a few weeks ago, has also gotten the attention of other countries, including Greece, according to Globes.
