The Arava was designed to fulfil the need for a light transport with STOL performance and rough-field landing capabilities. The first prototype to fly took to the air on 27 November 1969. The IAI 101 civil-transport version was certificated by the FAA in 1972. The IAI 102, based on the IAI 101, accommodates 20 passengers in airline-standard configuration, although VIP configurations for up to 12 passengers, all-cargo and medical clinic for flying doctor services are available; together with versions for mapping, mining research, rainmaking and bridge construction, as flying laboratories for agriculture and health ministries, and for supplying oil-prospecting units.
The IAI 201 is the military transport version. The IAI 202 is a modified version of the Arava, first flown in 1976. It is longer, has a fully 'wet' wing fitted with endplate surfaces ('winglets') and a boundary layer fence just inboard of each tip.
By 1987 around 90 aircraft were built.
