Elbit Systems has signed another US$967 million in orders in the past three months after reporting its land revenues increased by 24% for 3Q2024 compared to 3Q 2023 thanks to increasing ammunition and munition sales in Israel.

This latest deal followed recent contracts for hundreds-of-millions of dollars for European customers, as well as Israel and the US, building on a large order book which is at its highest ever at US$22.1 billion at the end of 3Q 2024.
Revenues in 3Q 2024 were US$1.7 billion, as compared to US$1.5 billion in 3Q 2023. Growth was strong across all division with aerospace revenues
