Portfolio overview

Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd. has been granted 157 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd. at rank #2,486 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 68 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 20.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in B64D (EQUIPMENT FOR FITTING IN OR TO AIRCRAFT; FLIGHT SUITS; PARACHUTES; ARRANGEMENT OR MOUNTING OF POWER PLANTS OR PROPULSION TRANSMISSIONS IN AIRCRAFT). As a Foreign Corporation, Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Israel sits between Astec International Limited (157 patents, rank #2,482) and Snaptrack, Inc. (157 patents, rank #2,490) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 60.3/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 74 grants, compared with 83 in the 2015–2019 window, a -11% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd.'s 20.8 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 68 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio

Israel's 157 grants land it in the top 3% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - Israel ranks #2,486 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in B64D - see who else leads that technology area. B64D leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
