PULS supports the firing of both free-flying rockets and precision-guided rockets and missiles ranging from 12 km and up to 300 km. The PULS launcher is a fully adaptable launching system and can be mounted on a broad range of wheeled and tracked platforms.
“The acquisition of Elbit Systems' PULS solution will enhance the Royal Netherland Army's ability to provide effective indirect fire support. It will also provide interoperability with NATO customers that have acquired these systems,” said Bezhalel (Butzi) Machlis, president and CEO of Elbit Systems.
