). The TJT is an interactive system that delivers advanced simulated training for law enforcement and government agencies deploying TASER non-lethal devices.

The new system is designed to not only teach officers how to use a TASER, but more importantly, when to use the device and how to correctly react to real-world situations--using the appropriate level of force--while protecting themselves and the populace at large.

"By working closely with TASER, we have developed an exceptionally useful system for furthering the training of law enforcement and emergency responders," said Greg Otte, president of Arotech's IES Interactive Training.

The TJT, developed by Arotech's IES subsidiary comes equipped with the TASER M26 and X26 User Course, produced exclusively by IES's Summit Training International. The system incorporates the TASER device into the use-of-force continuum offering a series of interactive training scenarios from verbal commands to less-lethal force and ultimately, if the situation warrants, lethal force--all based on TASER International's safe usage guidelines.

"TASER and IES have a long history of working closely together to develop the most advanced interactive TASER technology training available to the law enforcement community," said Rick Smith, CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization.

"The TASER Judgmental Trainer demonstrates IES's and TASER's dedication to meeting law enforcement needs for advanced and ongoing force option training," said Robert S. Ehrlich, Arotech Corporation's Chairman and CEO.

Arotech's IES and TASER International have agreed to an exclusive, joint marketing agreement that enables the companies and their authorized distributors, sales representatives and trainers to market the TASER Judgmental Trainer to law enforcement and government agencies.
