the high tech industry in Israel is not that big. If you look at the companies that make COTS microwave and millimeter wave telecommunications equipment, they're not too different from the other .IL companies which make advanced radar systems, jammers, and avionics for aircraft.

I imagine it's similar for black/grey-hat software development.

The tech industry in Israel is RELATIVELY huge, not in absolute numbers of course.

I didn't get the connection between microwave and spying tools

RF/microwave/millimeter wave engineering, SIGINT, cryptographic stuff and unit 8200 + spying tools are linked.
