A Haifa-based has won a contract to supply a European military with state-of-the-art tactical communication systems,

Elbit Systems announced on Tuesday that it had signed a one-year, $40 million contract to sell a number of combat radio systems to the military of an unnamed European nation.

The sale includes the CNR9000HDR tactical IP radio system for medium to long range communication; the THF 8000 ‘over the horizon’ communication system for extreme distances that can be configured for use by armored vehicles or infantry units; the PNR-1000 infantry IP radio “E-Lynx” system; and digital intercom systems for combat vehicles.
