The first order is the replacement of ten self-propelled howitzers that were delivered to Kyiv. The transaction amount is about 185 million euros.
The German government initiated the purchase of Panzerhaubitze 2000 self-propelled artillery mounts (ACS) to replenish the Bundeswehr after the equipment was transferred to Ukraine. This was reported on March 17 by the newspaper Handelsblatt.
It is noted that the framework agreement with the manufacturing company Krauss-Maffei Wegmann, which also produces Leopard 2 tanks, provides for the manufacture and supply of up to 28 self-propelled guns.
According to the publication, the first order is the replacement of ten self-propelled howitzers that were delivered to Kyiv. The amount of the transaction is about 185 million euros, most of which must be paid in 2025.
It is reported that if, after ordering ten Panzerhaubitze 2000 self-propelled guns, additional copies are ordered, this can only be done in batches of at least six pieces. The amount of the order for all 28 self-propelled guns is estimated at 470 million euros.
Earlier it was reported that the Armed Forces of Ukraine received self-propelled guns PzH 2000 from Germany.
Recall that the FRG handed over to Ukraine a new package of military assistance, which included artillery shells of 155 mm caliber and rockets for MARS II multiple launch rocket systems.
