| 2025-04-29 |
| [IsraelTimes] The IDF says it has made its first operational use of a new artillery weapon in the Gaza Strip. The Bar rockets, developed by Elbit, were used by the 282nd Artillery Regiment to hit targets in southern Gaza amid the ongoing offensive against Hamas. According to the military, the Bar rockets feature a “navigation mechanism tailored to challenging combat environments,” and they are able to strike targets within “a very short time.” Bar rockets are set to replace the IDF’s aging Romach rockets, which are launched from M270 Multiple Launch Rocket Systems. |
