The Defense Ministry says it has signed a $183 million (NIS 570 million) multi-year order for aerial munitions from arms manufacturer Elbit.
The ministry says the deal “will expand Israel’s defense industrial base and strengthen the IDF’s capabilities for the immediate future and the challenging security decade ahead.”
Aerial munitions are missiles and other bombs used by Israeli Air Force aircraft for strikes and interceptions.
