Elbit Secures $335M Defense Deal with European Ally

Elbit Systems announced on Monday that it has secured contracts totaling $335 million to supply advanced defense systems to a European nation.

The deal includes the delivery of PULS (Precise and Universal Launching Systems) rocket launchers, missiles, and Hermes 900 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with cutting-edge payloads. The projects are slated for completion within three and a half years.

The PULS launcher and Hermes 900 UAV are among Elbit's flagship offerings. The Hermes 900, which serves in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) alongside the Hermes 450 and Zik drones, has seen heightened international demand since the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine war.

The system’s versatility in regional control, intelligence gathering, and maritime surveillance has made it a preferred choice for over 20 countries since its introduction in 2011.

Meanwhile, the PULS system offers a flexible and cost-efficient solution, capable of deploying unguided rockets, precision-guided munitions, and missiles across multiple ranges. Its adaptability to existing wheeled or tracked platforms provides clients with substantial maintenance savings, enhancing its global appeal.
