Spain finalises acquisition of Israeli PULS multiple launch rocket systems

25 December 2023 17:18

The Spanish Ministry of Defence has completed a contract worth nearly 700 million euros ($771 million) with a temporary business consortium including Escribano Mechanical and Engineering and Rheinmetall Expal Munitions, to supply the Army with the High Mobility Rocket Launcher System (Silam). Spain's chosen system is the PULS.

The selected system is PULS, a rocket launcher developed by the Israeli company Elbit Systems. The agreement includes a technology transfer for the production of rocket launchers and ammunition in Spain. The award, announced on December 15, was expected, as the army had previously expressed its preference for this offer, according to Army Recognition.

The programme initially plans to supply twelve launchers, equivalent to an artillery group. Additionally, the package includes a range of support vehicles and systems, such as a demonstrator launch vehicle, 12 munition vehicles with cranes, two recovery vehicles, six high mobility reconnaissance vehicles, ten different types of command post vehicles, initial logistical support, training and simulation resources, and a rocket launcher platform for testing and validating the ammunition.

The purchase also includes multifunction radars and high-performance tactical drones for target location and identification, as well as loitering ammunition.

The delivery of launchers and training rockets will begin in 2024, and live munitions are expected from 2025. The final batches of rockets are scheduled to be delivered to the army by 2028.
