Shift in Slovak Defense Strategy
Slovakia plans to halt production of the Zuzana 2 system, a 155 mm self-propelled howitzer, and focus on the lighter, more modern Eva system.
The decision is reportedly influenced by lessons from the Russo-Ukrainian war, which has changed global demand for artillery systems.
The war in Ukraine "killed" the Zuzana 2 system's chances on the international market.
- Modern buyers prefer lighter, more mobile systems.
- Highly automated systems that prioritize crew safety and rapid redeployment are in higher demand.
Slovakia's defense minister and sources cited by Denník N support this shift in strategy.
