SH-15 Self propelled howitzer under trials by Pakistan army?

. . . .
Pakistan is buying this 236 units for $512 million

155mm round is a devastating round

it can flatten a hardened bunker

Question is, is it as good as a self propelled howitzer like the 155mm Firtina from Turkey ?

POF already makes 155mm shells

Can you post a link regarding the purchase?

As for firtina, that’s basically a Korean K-9.

Firtina is a fully auto and armour SPH. It's cost is few times higher compare truck mount howtizer. The reason why PA goes for this unit definitely cost budget is a factor taken into consideration.

Is it confirmed that only 236 are we getting?

Just wondering why don’t we see many pictures of the Panther towed howitzer we got from Turkey

Bring these guns to LOC and target practice on Indian bunkers to see how many explode into pieces.

LOC is the best place to test them

India is already getting K9s with max range of 40km. They are getting M777 and has increased range of Dhanush to approx 30km. The latter both are a bigger threat to us as towed artillery is usually deployed on LOC
