Australia's Hanwha Armoured vehicle Centre of Excellence has delivered the first AS9 self-propelled howitzers, part of a contract for 30 AS9 howitzers and 15 AS10 ammunition vehicles. This marks a significant step in establishing local defense manufacturing capabilities, with plans for the first AS10 carrier to be produced later this year. The facility, completed in August 2024, aims to enhance Australia’s long-range fire support and serve as a regional production hub.
