With an electric engine, the suicide drone is able to operate for up to 2 hours in the sky and strike targets while maintaining a “man in the loop” even without GPS and communication. Moreover, its modular design allows for on-site changes of warhead types.

Yet another war contract

Earlier this month, Elbit announced that it won a $200 million contract to supply advanced artillery and command and control systems used in offensive operations to an "undisclosed" European country.

The military firm said the artillery contract will provide C4I (command, control, communications, computers, and intelligence) capabilities to four battalions of 155mm howitzers and a Hostile Fire Counter Attack (HFCA) system.

According to the company, the contract will be executed until 2026 with options for further extensions.
