Shavit (Hebrew: "comet" - שביט) is a space launch vehicle produced by Israel to launch small satellites into low earth orbit.
Shavit is launched from the seashore near Palmachim by the Israeli Space Agency into a retrograde orbit over the Mediterranean Sea to prevent debris coming down in populated areas and also to avoid flying over nations hostile to Israel to the east; this results in a lower payload-to-orbit than east-directed launches would allow.
Shavit is based on the Jericho II intermediate-range ballistic missile.

Shavit is a small, 3-stage, solid propellant booster based on the 2-stage Jericho 2 ballistic missile and developed under the general management of Israeli Aircraft Industries and in particular its MBT System and Space Technology subsidiary.
Shavit was proposed to launch an American commercial recoverable spacecraft (COMET) which would have required a payload of 800 kg or more inserted into a low altitude orbit (References 99-101).
CTM is designed to lift a 2.1 metric ton satellite from a 200 km, 28 degree parking orbit to GEO and was scheduled to be ready for flight by the end of 1992 but was still awaiting a mission as 1994 came to a close (References 102 and 103).

Shabtai Shavit was director general of the Mossad, Israel's intelligence agency, between 1989 and 1996.
The good news, I suppose, is that the strategic perception of the region by the moderate Arab leaders and their European counterparts as well as the U.S. has shifted to finally seeing the truth of the matter.
Shavit: The idea of democratization is still too early for the Arab countries to adopt.

 Israel: How Far Can Its Missiles Fly?
The interdependency of the Shavit launcher and the Jericho missile reflects the blurry line between civilian and military development in Israel.
One clue the Shavit is derived from military rather than civilian technologies is the Shavit's launching pad.
Judging from the power of the Shavit, a Jericho-II consisting of the Shavit's first two stages should be able to fly 4,500 kilometers with a one-ton payload.

 Israel Chooses Indian PSLV To Launch New Spy Satellite
Government and industry sources here conceded that Israel's embrace of the PSLV was driven in large part by a loss of confidence in the Shavit, which has had reliability problems over the past decade.
The latest Shavit failure, in September 2004, destroyed the defense ministry's estimated $100 million Ofeq-6 electro-optical imaging satellite.
And while supporters of the Shavit were disappointed by the move to the Indian launcher, they insisted that the Israeli government has not forsaken its policy of space launch self-reliance and will deliver its planned Ofeq-7 into orbit using an improved version of the homegrown launcher.

 IsraCast: MOSSAD LAMBASTS 'MUNICH'
Shavit launched a scathing attack on the film charging: ‘There is absolutely no similarity to Mossad methods, personnel or the mission’s objective’.
What also irked Shavit was that the film was based on a book by a ‘charlatan’ journalist who never served in the Mossad.
Interview on Israel Radio, Shavit said a movie producer of Spielberg’s caliber could not evade responsibility for the result of a false moral symmetry between the Palestinian terrorists and the Israeli agents who brought them to justice.

Shavit is horrified, and asks: ?I'm not sure I understand.
The irony, as Shavit writes in the introduction to the interview, is that Morris is also the historian best known for his work on the birth of the Palestinian refugee problem, which aroused much hostility inside Israel.

The Jerusalem daily Haaretz blasted Shavit - who told the former president that Rich helped Mossad in the past - saying he should have gotten permission from the spy agency's current chief, Egrayim Halevy, before writing the letter.
Shavit stopped short of describing the assistance Rich provided in the two countries, but what he did reveal is known to have infuriated Halevy.
Still, the extent to which Shavit was willing to go to defend his pardon recommendation explains, in part, why other top Israeli officials tried to intervene on behalf of the fugitive financier.
