Zitat:Australia receives first AS9 Huntsman self-propelled howitzer from South Koreahttps://armyrecognition.com/news/army-ne...outh-korea
As reported by Gregory Knowles on January 15, 2025, Australia received its first AS9 Huntsman self-propelled howitzer from South Korea, as it was recently seen in Geelong, Victoria. This unit is likely the same one observed during testing in South Korea. The delivery marks the start of a $788 million contract signed in December 2021 between the Capability Acquisition and Sustainment Group (CASG) and Hanwha Defense Australia. Under this agreement, 30 AS9 howitzers and 15 AS10 Armored Ammunition Resupply Vehicles (AARVs) will be produced at the Hanwha Armoured Vehicle Centre of Excellence (H-ACE) in Geelong, with deliveries scheduled for completion by 2027.
