The family appears in several post-Soviet and coalition conflicts: Georgian DANA guns were documented in the 2008 Russo-Georgian War, Polish DANA crews fired in Afghanistan, Azerbaijani DANA M1 systems were reported in the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh fighting, and Czech-supplied DANA and DANA M2 howitzers later gave Ukrainian forces mobile 152 mm artillery during the full-scale Russian invasion.

Open sources support its Slovak and Cypriot service context and its relationship to Zuzana 2, but the older M. 2000 system is kept out of conflict listings because direct battlefield-use sourcing was not verified.

Public sources support this page as a relationship-only ammunition record through product data, transfer records, and howitzer compatibility context, not through direct conflict-use evidence for the exact projectile.
