Elbit Systems Awarded $228 Million Follow-on
Contract to Provide Iron Fist APS for U.S. Army
Bradley IFV Upgrades
Haifa, Israel, January 26, 2026 – Elbit Systems Ltd. (NASDAQ: ESLT) (TASE: ESLT) (“Elbit
Systems” or the “Company”) announced today, following the U.S. Government's publication from September 29, 2025 of an award to General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems (GD-OTS) of an order for the Bradley Fighting vehicle Active Protection
System (APS), that Elbit Systems has been awarded by GD-OTS a $228 million contract to supply the Company's Iron Fist APS. The contract will be executed over a period of three years.
The Iron Fist APS is an advanced hard-kill active protection system designed to enhance the survivability and self-defense capabilities of armored platforms against a wide range of modern battlefield
threats. As the Israel Defense Forces’ second-generation APS, Iron Fist combines high performance with a compact design, characterized by low volume, weight and power requirements. The system delivers 360-degree protection against various anti-armor
threats, including Anti-Tank Rockets (ATR), Anti-Tank Guided Missiles (ATGM), Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), loitering munitions, and Kinetic-Energy (APFSDS) tank ammunition, in both open terrain and complex urban environments.
This contract follows an initial contract awarded to the Company by GD-OTS, as announced by Elbit Systems on May 5, 2024. Iron Fist APS has been selected by the Israel Defense Forces, as well as by
leading NATO and worldwide armies for a variety of fighting platforms, and this contract marks its third selection by the U.S. Army.
Bezhalel (Butzi) Machlis, President and CEO of Elbit Systems: “Our globally recognized Active Protection System
continues to demonstrate its technological edge. As a leading provider in this field, we are proud of our close and strategic partnership with GD-OTS and the U.S. Army, and of the trust placed in us to deliver systems that enhance survivability and
protect the lives of American troops in the field.”
