The Arbalète Artillery System, also known as the Arbalète LRM17, is a self-propelled multiple rocket launcher developed in 2017 for the Montesayettean Army. It features a primary element consisting of a pod containing twelve UFM(L) 262 mm rockets or four Percuteur 400 mm tactical ballistic missiles. These are mounted on an adapted 8×8 chassis, originally from an all-terrain articulated hauler. The crew and engine compartments are armored, while the cab is equipped with bullet- and fragmentation-resistant windows. Notably, the system's modular design allows for the integration of a lightweight, remote-controlled weapon station atop the crew compartment. Additionally, the Arbalète system includes an ammunition replenishment vehicle and a Milos support vehicle.
