Maybe part of some live drills that were on the cards for long.

Wish them success.

World premiere for Aleksandar new 155 mm wheeled self-propelled howitzer in the Nora family.


World premiere at Partner 2017, for the new Aleksandar 155mm self-propelled howitzer with full automatic loading system. The vehicle is based on the NORA B-52 family which is fully designed and manufactured in Serbia by the State Company Yugoimport.

New Aleksandar 155mm wheeled self-propelled howitzer with fully automatic loading system at Partner 2017, the International Fair of Armaments and Defense Equipment in Belgrade, Serbia.

The Aleksandar is a wheeled self-propelled howitzer armed with one 155mm 52 caliber cannon which is also used on the previous version of the NORA B-52 which is now service in Asia , Middle East and in Serbia.
With the new Aleksandar, the Serbian Company Yugoimport will provide a new self-propelled howitzer similar to the Archer wheeled howitzer manufactured by BAE Systems.

The layout of the Aleksandar is similar to the NORA B-52 using the same Tatra 8x8 military truck chassis, but the rear turret is removed and replaced by a full automatic loading system mounted at the rear of main gun which has a total of 12 rounds ready to the fire.

To increase the speed for the reload of ammunition, 12 additional ammunition are stored in a storage box located at the rear of the crew cab. In a few seconds, the automatic loading system can be reloaded and continue firing operations.

The Aleksandar has a maximum firing range of 32,5 km with standard ammunition and 52 km with the 155 mm HE ERFB RA/BB (VLAP), a new generation of very long range artillery projectiles designed for importantly improving operational range performances of a modern towed and self-propelled 155 mm gun - howitzers with 39, 45 and 52 caliber barrel length.

In my opinion Pakistan should test this one because the NORA B 52 doesn't look so maneuverable and moving it seems to be a issue.

Pakistan Army tested these 'shoot-and-scoot' systems from Yugoslavia, South Africa & France. All of them failed during the trials. So the project is back to square one

Worth noting that Yugoimport-SDPR (Serbia) revealed the Aleksandar SPH a few weeks ago, a fairly upgraded variant of the NORA B-52 they had sent for trials in Pakistan. Any chance the feedback from the trials could have gone into the Aleksandar?

The CAESAR (CAmion Equipé d'un Système d'ARtillerie or Truck equipped with an artillery system) is a French self-propelled 155 mm/52-calibre gun-howitzer, installed on a 6X6 truck chassis.In 16 September 2015, Nexter has unveiled the Caesar 8x8 at DSEI 2015 with high level of mobility ensured by a modified TATRA 8x8 chassis. The 8x8 Caesar being shown is fitted with a standard unarmoured forward control four-person cab, but one of the options is a fully armour protected cab. Gross vehicle weight would depend on the level of armour protection, but is about 30 tonnes. It is powered by a 410 hp diesel engine. On 14 March 2017 the CAESAR 8 X 8 was chosen to become the new artillery system of the Danish Army. 15 howitzers will be purchased and installed on Tatra 8×8 trucks. The CAESAR platform was developed by Nexter and is operated by the French, Indonesian, Saudi Arabian, Lebanon and Thai militaries
