Overview

ACCULAR is Elbit Systems' short-to-medium range guided artillery rocket, fired from the modular PULS launcher alongside the longer-ranged EXTRA and Predator Hawk rounds. Elbit describes it as combat proven and aimed at urban-warfare requirements where near-real-time responsiveness matters and where traditional tube artillery is constrained by terrain, distance or accuracy. The manufacturer quotes a maximum range of up to 40 km and an accuracy of less than 10 m circular error probable, and states the rocket can be ready to fire in under one minute and operates autonomously in any weather without depending on additional systems. Warhead options are a unitary penetration type or a controlled-fragmentation type, chosen to neutralise most artillery targets on the modern battlefield while limiting collateral damage; Elbit claims roughly ten times the effectiveness of a standard high-explosive shell. Multiple rocket types are offered within the ACCULAR family and the round is adaptable to existing launcher platforms. Elbit does not publish rocket diameter, length, launch weight or warhead mass on its product page, so those fields are omitted here rather than estimated.
