Greek lawmakers approved late on Thursday the purchase of 36 PULS rocket artillery systems from Israel for about 650 million euros ($757.84 million), two officials with knowledge of the issue told Reuters.

"In a closed session, the parliament's defence committee approved the purchase of PULS," a senior official with knowledge of the issue told Reuters.

A second official confirmed the parliament's approval, adding that the cost would be around 650 to 700 million euros. Reuters reported in November that Greece was in talks with Israel for the systems.

The PULS system, made by Israel's Elbit, has a range of up to 300 km (190 miles) and will help protect Greece's northeastern border with Turkey and Greek islands in the Aegean, officials have said. The deal also includes the construction of components in Greece.

Elbit Systems Ltd. announced today that it was notified that the Hellenic Parliament and KYSEA (Government Council for National Security) have approved a budget for the purchase of the Company's PULS rocket artillery system for the Hellenic Armed Forces. Considering the above, Elbit Systems anticipates receiving a contract in an amount that is material to the Company.

The anticipated contract award is contingent, among others, on completion of commercial negotiations with the Hellenic Ministry of National Defense.

The General Directorate for Defence Investments and Armaments (GDDIA) announces that on Monday, 6 April 2026, the Government to Government Agreement 009A/26 concerning the procurement of the PULS (Precise & Universal Launching System) rocket artillery system was signed by the General Director of GDDIA, Major General Ioannis Bouras and the Director of SIBAT Brig.
