LYNX is a multiple rocket launcher developed and manufactured by Israel Military Industries (IMI) and used by Israel Defense Forces and other countries.[1]
It can be configured to carry a variety of rockets in two sealed pod containers: 40 (2 pods x 20 rockets each) 122mm Grad rockets; or 26 (2x13) 160mm LAR-160 or ACCULAR rockets; or eight (2x4) 306mm EXTRA rockets; or four (2x2) Predator Hawk tactical ballistic missiles;[1] or two (2x1) Delilah missiles.
After the acquisition of Israel Military Industries by Elbit Systems in 2018, an upgraded and modernized version of the LYNX was developed, called the PULS (Precise & Universal Launching System).[2]
