The story
Founded by Shlomo Ostersetzer in 1969, in Israel.1
TAT Technologies was founded in Israel in 1969 by Shlomo Ostersetzer in response to a French arms embargo on combatants in the Six-Day War. The company was established with the goal of replacing the French aviation industry, upon which Israel had relied extensively until that time. TAT has been listed on the NASDAQ American stock exchange since 1987 and joined the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange in 2005. In 2007 the ownership of TAT was acquired from Ostersetzer and partner Dov Zeelim by Isal, a subsidiary of KMN Holdings, controlled by Roni Elroy, son-in-law of Yitzhak Tshuva.
