Earlier this week, Calcalist reported that Israel's Government Companies Authority is set to recommend against approving the acquisition of Aeronautics by Israeli defense contractor Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd. and Israeli businessman Avihai Stolero. Announced in January, the proposed deal specifies that Rafael and Stolero will each own a 50% stake in the company, according to a company valuation of NIS 850 million ($237 million).
