PZH 2000 - THE MOST MODERN TUBE ARTILLERY SYSTEM IN THE WORLD

A superior technical design is what makes this system so successful. Completely automatic handling of the large on-board supply of 60 rounds, a modern and precise 155 mm/52 cal. weapons system, complete autonomy of the overall system in driving, navigation and firing, and system-derived stability enable individual options previously unfeasible in tube artillery systems.

The PzH 2000 meets all international demands for a modern tube artillery system and can be viewed as the crowning masterpiece of German military industry and KMW's system leadership.

Wide spectrum of applications

Reliability, endurance and deployability are enhanced by a 360° effective range at all elevations, a firing range > 40 km, a cadence of up to 10 rounds per minute, and high tactical mobility.

The PzH 2000 forms an essential element in combat support, both now and in future combat and crisis scenarios. The PzH 2000 procurement program was the first in the Bundeswehr where industry offered a block guarantee of reliability and availability specifications from the start of mass production.
