Israeli defense electronics company Elbit Systems today announced a $65 million contract by an Asian-Pacific country to provide a Search and Rescue (SAR) solution connecting its army, navy and air force.
Under the contract, the Israeli company will install Airborne Locator Systems (ALS) and Emergency Locator Transmitters (ELTs) onboard various mission aircraft and helicopters in use by the customer's Air Force, Army and Navy, and will also supply thousands of Personal Survival Radio (PSR) systems.
Elbit Systems Land and C4I general manager Yehuda Vered said, "based on our vast portfolio of Radio and Communication solutions, already operational with dozens of armed forces worldwide, we are able to provide a technological edge, and we hope that additional customers will follow in selecting our unique SAR systems as their solution of choice."
