Twelve units of self-propelled howitzers from the Israeli company Elbit Systems have just been delivered to the Army Artillery Regiment (AAR). The AAR will get a much-needed boost.

There will be a technical inspection of the weapons that came into the country on December 28, the Philippine Army’s spokesperson said Thursday. Before the AAR can be officially accepted, the weapons will be checked out this month, he said.

“The 12 units have already been delivered to the AAR, and the TIAC (Technical Inspection Acceptance Committee) will do a technical inspection of them this month before the AAR accepts them as their own. Once it meets the specifications and is approved by the committee, soldiers will need to be trained in how to use the new weapon. Then the Army will be able to use it. Waiting for them to be officially accepted: The Army is still waiting for them to be officially accepted “In a message to the Philippine News Agency, he said that.

Trinidad also said that the 12 self-propelled howitzers were bought for the AAR to give them “mobility with firepower.”

It was bought through a government-to-government deal as part of the Armed Forces of the Philippines Modernization Program’s Horizon Two. It’s worth about PHP2.4 billion.

He said that the new weapons will help the AAR’s 155mm towed-howitzers.

“It is in addition to the 155mm-towed howitzers that are already there for fire support,” Trinidad said.
