Haifa, Israel, 8 May, 2024 – Elbit Systems Ltd. (NASDAQ: ESLT and TASE: ESLT) (“Elbit

installation on Pandur 6x6 APC wheeled armored vehicle for a European customer. The contract will be performed over a period of 6 years.
This marks the first contract signed for the supply of the Crossbow since its unveiling at the DSEI exhibition in London in 2023.

with a sustained rate of fire of six rounds per minute. The system can fire a variety of NATO 120mm ammunition, including the Iron Sting guided mortar munition, providing an effective range of up to 10 kilometers. No index loading is required for
the Crossbow turret, which offers a 360° capability.
