Archer is a fully automated, self-propelled 155 mm howitzer developed for the fragmented battlefield. Loading, laying and firing is handled from inside the armoured cabin, offering full protection for the crew at all times. With a firing range in excess of 50 km and 20 seconds in and out of action, the Archer artillery system provides powerful and swift support – for every mission.

Striking the perfect balance between power and mobility by featuring long range precision, fast deployment time and a protected environment for the crew.
