The Elbit Systems Iron Fist active protection system (APS) has completed a successful series of live-fire trials on the Israel Defense Forces' (IDF's) new Eitan armoured personnel carrier (APC), the Israeli Ministry of Defense (MoD) announced on 12 December.

A joint statement from the ministry's Tank and APC Directorate, IDF Ground Forces, and Elbit Systems Land Division said an Iron Fist installed on an Eitan “intercepted anti-tank threats in various challenging scenarios”.

“The Tank and APC Directorate is currently completing its preparation for the delivery of the self-developed Eitan advanced 8×8 wheeled APC to the IDF,” the statement quoted the directorate's head, Brigadier General Oren Giber, as saying. “The Iron Fist system is an important part of this project. It is currently in advanced stages of development and deployment to the Eitan APC and the bulldozer, undergoing rigorous trials to ensure its suitability for the battlefield.”
