In a press release, Elbit said it will supply its Asian client with Hermes 900 UAS and associated systems, and will also provide maintenance and support services.
The Hermes 900 UAS has so far been sold to 12 countries – a testament to its competitive edge and technological sophistication, the defense contractor said.
Elbit Systems president and CEO Bezhalel Machlis said, " There is a continuous demand for integrating unmanned systems to cope with a growing variety of operational needs. Our operational portfolio of autonomous capabilities, in all domains of operation, positions us competitively to address these needs."
