Legacy customer orders more Elbit equipment
Elbit Systems is to provide an unnamed existing customer in the Asia-Pacific region with tactical radio systems in a 12-month contract worth about $33 million.
Artillery and infantry units in the customer country will be equipped with radios in vehicular, manpack and handheld configurations.
‘The radio systems feature advanced networking capabilities enabling reliable and secure voice and data communication services over extended ranges,’ Elbit noted in a 1 October statement.
The same customer recently selected Elbit to provide networked combat solutions such as its E-LynX software-defined radios (pictured) and TORCH-X C2 systems.
