Tel Aviv [Israel], July 28 (ANI/TPS): Israel's Elbit Systems announced Monday it was awarded a USD 260 million contract by Airbus Defence and Space to supply its J-MUSI Directed Infrared Counter Measures (DIRCM) systems for Germany's A400M military transport aircraft.

Designed to protect aircraft from infrared-guided missile threats, Elbit's DIRCM uses lasers and imaging to autonomously detect and disrupt incoming missiles.

The six-year deal was approved by Germany's Federal Office for Equipment, Information Technology and Operations. (ANI/TPS)

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
