Rheinmetall and Elbit Systems partner on EH52 artillery programme

Rheinmetall and Elbit Systems have teamed up to develop the EH52 (European Howitzer 52 Calibre) programme, aiming to meet the field artillery needs of European nations, including the United Kingdom's Ministry of Defence (MOD). The collaboration features a fully automatic 52-calibre gun mounted on Rheinmetall's HX series 10x10 truck. The turret for the artillery piece has been designed by Elbit Systems and has undergone rigorous testing under two separate funded programmes. It has also been showcased to multiple NATO partners.
