Zitat:Saudi Arabia Unveils SAMI 8x8 155mm Howitzer to Challenge European Artillery at WDS 2024https://armyrecognition.com/defense_news..._2024.html
In a significant move to bolster its indigenous defense capabilities, the Saudi Arabian Military Industries (SAMI) unveiled a groundbreaking 8x8 155mm self-propelled howitzer at the World Defense Show 2024. This strategic launch positions SAMI to directly compete with European defense giants, challenging the dominance of the French CAESAR and the German RCH 155 with its own advanced artillery solution. [...]
SAMI's latest venture, the 8x8 155mm howitzer, represents a significant leap forward for the Saudi defense industry, aiming to rival European-made wheeled howitzers with a product entirely designed and developed within the Kingdom. Based on a Czech TATRA 8x8 truck chassis, the new howitzer features a crew armor cab at the front and a 155mm cannon at the rear, equipped with a semi-automatic loading system and storage for charge and rounds.
