Israeli company Elbit Systems has been awarded contracts worth a total amount of about US$335 million to supply defence systems to a European country.
The contracts include the supply of PULS (Precise and Universal Launching Systems) rocket launchers and rockets, as well as Hermes 900 Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) equipped with advanced payloads. The contracts will be performed over a period of three years and six months.
The contracts are part of a wave of demand from European countries to improve their defence capabilities. The demand is the result of the ongoing war in Ukraine and the question mark about the future of NATO in its current form.
Elbit Systems’ PULS provides a comprehensive and cost-effective solution capable of launching unguided rockets, precision-guided munitions, and missiles with various ranges. The launcher is fully adaptable to existing wheeled and tracked platforms, enabling significant reduction in maintenance and training costs.
The Hermes 900 multi-role MALE UAS is Elbit Systems' largest unmanned aerial vehicle, designed to perform a wide range of missions, including area dominance and persistent intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition and reconnaissance (ISTAR) across land and maritime domains. Since its first order of in 2011, the Hermes 900 has been selected by over 20 customers worldwide.
“We are proud to support our European customer with advanced and versatile defense solutions that enhance operational effectiveness and adaptability," said Bezhalel (Butzi) Machlis, President and CEO of Elbit Systems. "These contracts reflect the global trust in our innovative systems, such as the PULS and Hermes 900, which are designed to meet a broad range of mission requirements. Through our comprehensive portfolio, we remain committed to providing our customers with reliable, technologically advanced tools that address today’s complex defense challenges."
