Military topcoat paint for Elbit Systems
Goods category: Special military goods
In January 2024 and February 2025, SECO authorised Mipa Coatings Switzerland to export a total of 20 kilograms of topcoat paint to three Elbit business units. The licences classify the goods as special military goods in category ML17.c.

The total approved value is 325.80 Swiss francs.
Effect of the proposed War Materiel Act revision
In Switzerland, special military goods (unlike in most other countries) are not subject to the War Materiel Act, but to the much weaker Goods Control Act.
