Greece Orders PULS Rocket Artillery Systems from Israel in $650 Million Deal
Greece has signed a major artillery procurement agreement with Israel valued at approximately $650 million. The deal centers on the acquisition of PULS multiple rocket launcher systems and associated munitions. It includes long-term support and elements of domestic industrial participation.
Greece and Israel have concluded a defense agreement covering the supply of advanced rocket artillery systems to the Hellenic Army, in a deal valued at roughly $650 million, according to reporting by Ynetnews.
The contract designates Elbit Systems as the prime contractor, responsible for delivering its PULS (Precise and Universal Launching System) multiple rocket launcher platform. The package also includes a range of guided munitions with varying operational ranges, intended to expand Greece’s long-range fires capability.
Implementation is expected to span four years, followed by a decade-long support and maintenance phase. This structure indicates a sustained operational partnership and lifecycle support arrangement between the supplier and the Greek armed forces.
The PULS system is designed as a flexible launcher capable of firing multiple types of rockets and missiles, allowing users to adapt to different operational requirements. Greece joins a growing group of NATO members that have recently selected the system as part of broader efforts to modernize indirect fire capabilities.
Industrial participation forms part of the agreement, with components expected to be produced by Greek defense companies. This reflects Athens’ ongoing policy to integrate domestic industry into procurement programs and strengthen national defense manufacturing capacity.
The deal comes amid increased European demand for long-range strike systems and artillery modernization, driven by evolving security dynamics and lessons identified from recent conflicts. Israeli defense firms have reportedly seen rising interest from European customers seeking rapid capability enhancements.
