Brig. Gen. (ret.) Karo will succeed Giora Katz, who is retiring from Rafael after a 17-year career in the company, during which he also served as Head of the Land and Naval division.

Karo, 54, joined Rafael five years ago, and has since then served as Head of the company’s Cyber and ISTAR Directorate. Prior to that, he served in the IDF for 30 years and filled various senior positions, including Head of Field Intelligence and Chief Intelligence Officer.

Rafael President and CEO Maj. Gen. (ret.)
