Product Description

Build an Italian military howitzer in a convenient 1/72 scale.

[About the actual vehicle]
The Panzerhaubitze 2000 and PzH 2000 are German self-propelled howitzers whose development began in 1987 and which started deployment in 1998.
The main armament consists of Rheinmetall's 155mm L52 gun with a barrel length exceeding 8 meters.
In addition to an advanced, electrically operated automatic loading system, multiple sensors and a computer mounted in the turret control everything from selecting the appropriate ammunition to loading it.
The chassis, which uses some components from the Leopard tank, is equipped with an MTU MT881V-type 8-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine at the front.
It delivers exceptional maneuverability in conjunction with the torsion bar suspension.
It has been adopted and is in operation not only in Germany, but also in Italy, Greece, the Netherlands, and other countries.
