The efforts for a European artillery system led to the development of the self-propelled howitzer 2000 at the end of the 80s. The device, designed in Germany, is one of the most modern artillery systems in the world.
It is not only German soldiers who appreciate their speed and accuracy. After the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the howitzers also brought decisive advantages to Ukrainian troops.
Wolfgang Schneider provides a comprehensive portrait of the high-tech weapon system. In doing so, he unearths previously unknown details from conversations with contemporary witnesses and exclusive insight into design documents.
