Here's What We Know
The short video, which appeared on Elbit System's X social media page, shows preparations for the shipment of one ATMOS howitzer and two PULS multiple rocket launchers to Denmark. The weapons will improve the capabilities of the Scandinavian armed forces' barrel and rocket artillery.

Denmark ordered French CAESAR self-propelled artillery units, but decided to hand them over to Ukraine. They will be replaced by almost two dozen Israeli ATMOS systems with a maximum range of 40 kilometres.
PULS is a system on a wheeled chassis that can launch missiles and precision rockets with a maximum range of 40 km to 300 km. In early 2023, it was reported that Denmark would order eight systems.
