Jerusalem, 1 November, 2018 (TPS) -- Elbit Systems and the European Defense Agency have signed a $68 Million deal by which the Israeli defense contractor will provide the EU with their Hermes 900 Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV).

Elbit Systems: ‘The EU choosing the Hermes 900 for its sea defense missions is testament of the quality of the UAV. Elbit’s Hermes 900 is gradually becoming the flagship UAV of many countries – it is operational, it is accumulating thousands of flight hours all over the world, it is the most advanced, it includes advanced intelligence and defense system, and it’s ‘Starliner’ version also includes a system that allows it to fly in civilian air spaces.”
