K9 Thunder, 155 mm tracked self-propelled howitzer, ArtilleryArtilleryK9 Thunder155 mm tracked self-propelled howitzerThe K9 Thunder is a South Korean 155 mm / 52-caliber tracked self-propelled howitzer built around protected mobility, rapid displacement, and high-rate indirect fire. Hanwha markets the family through K9A1 and K9A2 modernization paths, while Finnish Army data, Hanwha material, and U.S. Army Yuma Proving Ground reporting document its 47-ton tracked chassis, five-person baseline crew, 40 km-plus range class, burst-fire capability, K10 resupply link, and U.S. 155 mm munition compatibility work. Its directly sourced combat-use row here is the South Korean K9 response during the 2010 Yeonpyeongdo artillery exchange; Russia-Ukraine War links are treated as export and backfill context, not as Ukrainian K9 fielding.

Public sources identify Denel with the turret, OMC with the hull, and Lyttelton Engineering Works/Denel lineage with the system's development and production background, while conflict-use reporting places South African pre-production G6s in Angola in 1987 and UAE G6 howitzers in Yemen in 2015. Later G6-52 work paired the G6 concept with 52-caliber ordnance, automated ammunition handling, and longer-range V-LAP ammunition.
AHS Krab, 155 mm tracked self-propelled howitzer, ArtilleryArtilleryAHS Krab155 mm tracked self-propelled howitzerThe AHS Krab is a Polish 155 mm tracked self-propelled howitzer built by Huta Stalowa Wola around a NATO-standard 52-caliber gun, an AS-90 Braveheart turret lineage, a K9-derived tracked chassis, and the TOPAZ fire-control ecosystem. In Ukrainian service it gives artillery units a mobile Western-caliber gun able to fire standard and precision 155 mm ammunition, displace after missions, and operate in counter-battery-threatened sectors of the 2014 Russia-Ukraine War.
2S35 Koalitsiya-SV, 152 mm tracked self-propelled howitzer, ArtilleryArtillery2S35 Koalitsiya-SV152 mm tracked self-propelled howitzerThe 2S35 Koalitsiya-SV is a Russian 152 mm tracked self-propelled howitzer developed as a highly automated successor to the 2S19 Msta-S, pairing a 2A88 gun, automated loading, digital fire-control features, and a T-90-derived chassis for long-range tube-artillery missions. Russian and specialist reporting placed small numbers near the 2014 Russia-Ukraine War front from late 2023, but the direct conflict record remains source-limited and centered on counter-battery claims rather than verified large-scale fielding.
Panter 155 mm howitzer, 155 mm/52-caliber towed howitzer with auxiliary self-propulsion, ArtilleryArtilleryPanter 155 mm howitzer155 mm/52-caliber towed howitzer with auxiliary self-propulsionThe Panter is a Turkish 155 mm/52-caliber howitzer family developed by MKE for long-range NATO-standard artillery fire. The original towed system combines a split-trail carriage, assisted loading, and an auxiliary power unit for local movement, while the T-155 TTA / 8x8 program remounts the modernized Panter weapon system on a BMC wheeled tactical vehicle with ASELSAN fire control. Its public conflict record is narrow and disputed: open reporting ties the type to the July 2022 Zakho shelling attribution, while Turkey denied responsibility.
M109, 155 mm tracked self-propelled howitzer family, ArtilleryArtilleryM109155 mm tracked self-propelled howitzer familyThe M109 is a U.S.-origin 155 mm tracked self-propelled howitzer family built for mobile indirect fire with armored and mechanized forces. The family spans the original short-tube vehicle, M109A1 to M109A4 rebuild and export lines, the M109A5 M284-cannon upgrade, the digitally modernized M109A6 Paladin, current M109A7 production, and the longer-barrel M109-52 concept; catalog evidence here centers on direct conflict use by U.S., Ukrainian, U.S.-led coalition, and Israeli forces.
