Overview
European Precise and Universal Launching System — a joint Israeli-German multi-calibre multiple launch rocket system capable of firing various rocket and missile types from a single modular launcher. Based on the combat-proven Elbit PULS platform, adapted for European/NATO requirements by Rheinmetall. Can launch Elbit AccuLAR-122 (122mm, 35 km), Elbit AccuLAR-160 (160mm, 45 km), and EXTRA (306mm, 150 km) guided rockets, as well as the Predator Hawk 300 km-range missile. The modular pod system allows rapid reconfiguration between calibres in the field. Mounted on a Rheinmetall HX3 10x10 military truck for high strategic mobility. Selected by the Bundeswehr to replace the aging MARS II MLRS system, with deliveries expected from the late 2020s.
