The Defense Ministry on Tuesday signed a deal for Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd. to perform ongoing maintenance services for its remote-controlled “Typhoon” cannons used by the Israel Navy when they are in operational use, it said in a press release.

Zeev Landau, the Defense Ministry’s deputy director-general and head of the Directorate of Production and Procurement, said the deal was “an advanced, first-of-its-kind agreement that will guarantee a maximum accessibility of 80%-95% for dozens of Typhoon and Mini Typhoon cannons manufactured by Rafael installed on various naval vessels, including battleships and patrol ships.”

“The agreement is part of the DOPP’s policy to progress toward multiyear contracts based on accessibility, which will significantly improve the capacity of IDF operational systems,” he said.
