Israeli Firm Seeks Contract for Greece's PULS System Amid Air Defense Upgrades

Elbit Systems anticipates receiving a contract to provide its PULS rocket artillery system to the Hellenic military, contingent on commercial negotiations with the Greek Ministry of National Defense. Greece has been seeking to acquire 36 PULS systems as part of its air defense upgrades. The PULS system has been sold to several European customers, including Germany and the Netherlands. This development comes amid a broader Greek defense buildup, including discussions of an ‘Achilles’ Shield’ air defense system. The selection of Elbit’s PULS system reflects the growing ties between Israel and Greece, with both countries strengthening their defense cooperation in recent years. Breaking Defense reported on the Greek parliamentary defense committee’s approval of a $757 million purchase of the PULS system in December 2025.
