Self-propelled howitzers PzH 2000 (Panzerhaubitze 2000), which Germany supplied to Ukraine at the end of June, began to be used in the east of the country. Bild writes about this.

The publication notes that self-propelled artillery units (self-propelled guns) were placed in forests and camouflaged. The location of the howitzers is not called because of fears that the Russian military will track down and destroy them.

The gunner, who was trained in Germany, noted that it took 36 days to master the PzH 2000. He compared the capabilities of one PzH 2000 with three Soviet installations. It is noted that the German howitzer is a complex weapon.

The PzH 2000 self-propelled howitzer was developed in 1998. The ACS received a 155 mm caliber gun. The firing range of an active-rocket projectile is 67 kilometers. The frontal armor of the car provides protection from bullets of 14.5 mm caliber.

Earlier, Dmitry Litovkin, the editor-in-chief of the TASS magazine "Military-Technical Cooperation", suggested that the study of captured Caesar self-propelled guns of French production could help improve Russian equipment.

In April, it became known that the Netherlands could also transfer PzH 2000 self-propelled howitzers to Ukraine.
