The 155 mm 8x8 howitzer project represents a major leap forward in the Saudi defense industry, as it aims to compete with European-made wheeled howitzers with a product that was entirely designed and developed within the Kingdom. Based on the chassis of the TATRA 8x8 truck, the new howitzer features an armored crew cabin at the front and a 155 mm gun at the rear, and is equipped with a semi-automatic loading system and magazine for charges and rounds. Although specific details regarding the ammunition capacity have not been revealed, the vehicle promises to be a formidable addition to the Saudi arsenal
The howitzer includes an advanced computerized fire control system, allowing precise targeting and firing operations inside and outside the crew compartment. It is worth noting that the vehicle is armed with a variety of ammunition, including standard 155 mm rounds, GPS-guided rounds, and the US M982 Excalibur - a precision-guided munition designed for direct support scenarios and minimizing collateral damage in close proximity to civilians.
