Israeli defense contractor Elbit Systems has secured a significant five-year contract worth $260 million to supply its PULS rocket launcher systems and ammunition to an undisclosed NATO member country in Europe. The announcement was made on Thursday, November 12.
The PULS (Precise Universal Launching System) is described as Elbit's flagship product in its segment, capable of firing unguided rockets, precision-guided munitions, and various range missiles, offering battlefield flexibility. The system is adaptable to existing wheeled and tracked platforms, aiming to reduce maintenance and training costs. It can be equipped with EXTRA-MR precision rockets, capable of reaching up to 80 kilometers.
Despite facing hostility and boycott calls towards Israel, Elbit Systems is actively involved in rearming European nations amidst global tensions and perceived Russian threats. This latest deal follows a similar $235 million contract announced last month and a $750 million contract from April. The company's current order backlog stands at $32 billion.
Bezhalel (Butzi) Machlis, President and CEO of Elbit Systems, stated that the selection of the PULS system by European and NATO clients highlights its "operational maturity, versatility, and ability to meet the evolving demands of modern armed forces."
