Germany Orders Israeli PULS Rocket Launcher Artillery System

Elbit Systems Ltd. has secured a $57 million contract to supply its PULS Rocket Launcher Artillery Systems to the German Armed Forces through a trilateral agreement involving the Netherlands, Israel, and Germany.

Under the contract, Elbit Systems will collaborate with KNDS Deutschland to provide rocket artillery systems, including modifications and the integration of German C4I systems such as command and weapons control equipment. The Bundeswehr’s procurement agency, BAAINBw, along with technical test centers, will conduct trials to ensure the system meets operational standards before deployment.

The EuroPULS Rocket Launcher Artillery System, developed jointly by Elbit Systems and KNDS Deutschland for the European market, features an open-architecture design that allows integration onto various platforms. The system is also capable of firing munitions from third-party manufacturers, enhancing its compatibility with different types of rocket artillery.

Following successful trials, the rocket launchers will be integrated into the German Armed Forces with ongoing in-service support.
