Elbit Systems has secured a contract to supply a range of ground electronic intelligence capabilities to an undisclosed European country. 

Valued at around $390m, the contract requires the company to supply a variety of intelligence solutions over the next three years. The contract also covers communications and command and control solutions, Elbit stated.

Elbit Systems president and CEO Bezhalel (Butzi) Machlis said: “Our wide and synergetic range of capabilities allows us to provide our customers with a unique and high-quality solution, creating a force multiplier.

“As in other projects, we once again are providing the customer with a unique intelligence solution, based on cutting-edge technologies, operational know-how, and experience.”

The latest deal follows a $25m contract award to Elbit earlier this month to deliver J-Music direct infrared countermeasures (DIRCM) self-protection systems to an undisclosed international organisation.

"Elbit’s J-Music DIRCM is designed for protection of large aircraft against heat-seeking ground-to-air missiles."
