AHS Krab Has Shown Impressive Performance On The Battlefield

The AHS Krab is a 155 mm NATO-compatible self-propelled tracked gun-howitzer designed in Poland by Centrum Produkcji Wojskowej Huta Stalowa Wola, by combining the South Korean K9 Thunder chassis with a British AS-90M Braveheart turret with 52-calibre gun and WB Electronics' "Topaz" artillery fire control system. The 2011 version used a Nexter Systems barrel and UPG chassis. The 2016 production batch utilized the K9 chassis and a Rheinmetall barrel. As of 2016 full-rate production of 120 Krabs for Polish Army has started with 16 guns completed and deliveries to be completed by 2024. As of 2019, Centrum Produkcji Wojskowej Huta Stalowa Wola started using barrels of their own manufacture in successive production batches.

In June, the Ukrainian government in Kyiv signed a $65 million contract with Poland for 72 Krab self-propelled howitzers, of which the first 18 have been “donated” and delivered and are taking their place along the embattled front. Formidable a weapon though it is, the Krab is unique in that it combines an international consortium of designs, integrated in one original, indigenously manufactured weapon.
