The contracts include the supply of thousands of advanced communication systems from the software-defined radio (SDR) family, satellite communication systems, data-links for autonomous platforms, and the expansion of regional maintenance centres operating 24/7 in support of combat forces. Additionally, over the past year, the IMOD’s DDR&D, in collaboration with Elbit Systems and the IDF, has developed innovative solutions for secure and encrypted communication adapted to the evolving needs of IDF units.

These contracts are part of a broader strategic initiative led by the Director General of the IMOD, Maj Gen (Res.)

Haim Delmar, General Manager of Elbit Systems C4I & Cyber, said, “As a key partner in the IDF’s digital manoeuvre effort, we take pride in delivering the most advanced and secure tactical communication systems to forces in the field. These systems serve as the foundation of a digital army, utilising a dynamic, intelligent, and cognitive network to enable multi-domain connectivity and operational superiority. Our technology provides real-time situational awareness, ensures information availability, and delivers precision and adaptability in complex and rapidly evolving battlefields.”
