Israel's military manufacturer Elbit Systems says it has signed a $1.64-billion agreement to supply advanced weaponry to an undisclosed European country.
The five-year contract covers a broad arsenal of Elbit's latest military technology, including long-range precision-strike rocket artillery and a range of unmanned aerial vehicles, Israeli media reported Wednesday.
Many of the drones are designed for tactical and operational missions and incorporate artificial intelligence for enhanced combat capabilities.
The package also includes Elbit's intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition and reconnaissance (ISTAR) platforms, along with secure communications and signals intelligence systems.
Electro-optical devices and advanced night-vision equipment are also part of the deal.
A full military digitization package—featuring next-generation communications hardware and software—will also be provided as part of the agreement.
Elbit Systems is Israel's largest private arms manufacturer and a key supplier to the regime's military, whose weapons have been extensively used in Tel Aviv's genocidal war on Gaza.
The company stands accused of enabling war crimes, with its drones, artillery, and surveillance technologies linked to the deaths of more than 60,000 Palestinians and the destruction of vital infrastructure in the Gaza Strip.
The deal comes as Europe itself is under fire for supplying Israel with arms used in Gaza, despite repeated calls from human rights groups to halt all weapons transfers to the regime.
