Default Re: SP and SPAA Developments

Meaby not newest info but Slovakia since August supply Ukraine with new Zuzana 2 SP-guns

That is third incarnation of this famous Dana gun which in 1977 was state of the art first of it class wheeled gun with autoloader.
So evaluation look like that:

M1977 Dana build in Czechoslovakia -> Zuzanna build in Slovakia -> Zuzanna 2 build i Slovakia for their army and now for Ukraine.

Zuznna 2
has a different armoured cabin for driver than previous version what may judge new icon of course based on previous famous DANA.
