NIBE's deal with Israel
In July 2025, NIBE Limited had entered into an agreement with Israel’s Elbit Systems to manufacture the Israeli firm’s PULS multiple rocket launcher systems in India. Once inducted, PULS will become the first universal rocket launcher system to be operated by the Indian Army.
Earlier, in May 2025, NIBE secured another order worth ₹150.62 crore from a globally renowned Israel-based technology company.
The PULS system can be mounted on either 6×6 or 8×8 vehicle chassis and is capable of firing both guided and unguided rockets of varying calibres. It is an all-weather, multi-calibre platform designed for rapid “shoot-and-scoot” operations.
The system features a remotely controlled, powered launcher mounted at the rear of the vehicle. During firing, hydraulically operated stabilisers are deployed on both sides and at the rear to ensure a stable firing platform.
PULS follows a modular design and can accommodate pods carrying 122 mm, 160 mm, or 306 mm rockets, with the number of launchers per pod varying based on the rocket type.
