https://www.janes.com/article/93283/por ... m-howitzerThe Portuguese Army is considering procuring a new 155 mm artillery system to replace its M114A1 towed howitzers, an army staff source told Jane’s on 11 December. EUR18 million (USD20 million) has been allocated for the effort in the Portuguese 2019–2030 Military Programming Law.
Towed lightweight and truck-mounted self-propelled howitzers (SPHs) are options to replace 18 M114A1 155 mm/23-calibre howitzers fielded by the Intervention Brigade’s field artillery group and which entered service in 1983. SPHs are the preferred solution, according to the source.
Requirements for the future 155 mm artillery system include a ballistic computer and a link to an artillery command-and-control system.
