Item 1. Earnings for the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2002.

           Gedera, Israel- On November 12, 2002/PRNewswire/ - TAT Technologies
limited (NASDAQ/NMS: TATTF, TATWF), which is engaged in the manufacturing,
repairs and overhauls of heat transfer equipment and other various accessories,
mainly used in aircraft, reported a net profit of $698,306 on sales of
$6,609,040 in the third quarter ended on September 30, 2002 compared to a net
profit of $462,499 on sales of $6,088,985 for the same period of 2001.

For the nine months the company reported a net profit of $2,645,097 on sales of
$19,132,758 compared to net profit of $2,114,560 on sales of $19,601,285 for the
same period of 2001.

Despite a slight decrease in sales, the profit for the 9 month period has
increased by 25% compared to the same period of the previous year. This is
mainly due to the devaluation of the Israeli Shekel against the US dollar
effectively reducing expenditures in local currency and also, by the resumption
of revenues from know-how which did not occur for the same period in 2001.

TAT, together with its subsidiaries, is principally engaged in the manufacture,
repair and overhaul of heat transfer equipment, such as heat exchangers,
precoolers and oil/fuel hydraulic coolers used in aircraft, defense systems,
electronic equipment and other applications. In addition the company
manufactures and overhauls aircraft accessories and systems such as pumps,
valves, Power Systems, Turbines, etc.
