Arotech's FAAC Incorporated Receives $10.3 Million Award to Supply Law Enforcement Driving Simulators to the State of

ANN ARBOR, MI, Nov 12 (MARKET WIRE) --
FAAC Incorporated, part of Arotech Corporation's (NASDAQ: ARTX) Training
and Simulation Division, has received an award valued at $10.3M from the
California Department of General Services (DGS) to supply Law Enforcement
Driving Simulators to the California Commission on Peace Officer
Standards & Training (CA POST). FAAC will provide 108 high-fidelity
driving simulators to be installed at 24 training centers across the
state, including seven mobile training trailers.

The purchase of the FAAC driving simulators by CA POST was motivated by
two important factors: 1) the escalating incidence of law enforcement
officers killed or injured in traffic collisions both within California
and nationally; and 2) findings from CA POST's recently completed "Driver
Training Study, Volume 1 2008"
(www.post.ca.gov/Publications/Driver_Training_Study). The study examined
causes of traffic collisions and interventions to reduce occurrences.
Notably, the study found that training with driving simulators is
positively associated with a reduction in traffic collision rates. As a
result, the POST Commission (www.post.ca.gov/About_Us/Commissioners.asp)
unanimously supported the acquisition.

After a competitive procurement, that included a thorough product
demonstration with a detailed scoring and evaluation process, DGS and CA
POST selected FAAC based upon it receiving the highest technical score,
its positive past performance reviews, and it representing the overall
best value to the State of California.

"We are pleased to have been chosen and look forward to supporting CA POST
in revolutionizing their law enforcement training program," said David
Bouwkamp, FAAC Executive Director of Business Development. "This decision
to base the entire state's training program upon a consistent and
standardized simulator will result in incredible synergy among CA POST
instructors and improve the driving skills of law enforcement personnel
from San Diego all the way to Yreka."

"This CA POST award validates, on a large-scale, our approach to provide
the right fidelity solution as the best value solution for our customers,"
said Kurt Flosky, FAAC Executive Vice President. "We remain diligently
focused on providing simulator configurations that meet essential training
objectives, be it the use of real mirrors for transit customers or our
immersive 225 degrees field-of-view for Public Safety applications -- our
simulators are purpose-built to maximize training benefits."
