Leonardo has signed contracts with Italy and the UK to supply their forces with its Laser Inertial Artillery Pointing System (LINAPS).
The company will deliver a total of 39 LINAPS systems for Italy’s FH70 towed howitzers, boosting their precision fire capabilities.
Meanwhile, the support contract for the UK Ministry of Defence will ensure the readiness of the artillery pointing system for the army’s L118 light guns.
The deal will run through 2030, when the light guns are expected to be taken out of service.
Leonardo lists the system’s ability to ensure pinpoint firing accuracy as a prime reason for the contracts.
