(Worthy News) – Israel’s Ministry of Defense has signed a deal with Elbit Systems to develop the world’s most advanced cannon in one of the largest and most intricate military procurement deals in Israeli history.
The cannon will be able to automatically choose one of several shell types to fire, depending on the target, and is ultimately intended to replace Israel’s existing artillery system over the next several years.
