Automotive Industries Ltd. (Шаблон:Lang-he, Ta'asiyot Rekhev Natzrat Ilit, AIL) is an Israeli automaker and major supplier of the Israeli Security Forces.

History

Located in Nazareth Illit, the company was founded in 1966 by Automotive Equipment Group as a plant for the assembly of cars and trucks. AIL has since increased its role in the vehicle manufacture, doing much of the work on several early Willys MB-derivatives, and the more recent M462 trucks and AIL Storm (Sufa) series of Jeep Wrangler derivatives, and the AIL Desert Raider.

AIL was also an assembly-point for the Israel Defense Forces of Humvees, but U.S. foreign aid guarantees caused contracts to be moved to plants in the United States. AIL has developed the Storm III which began production in August 2008.
