According to Pistorius, Ukraine will receive another 18 x PzH 2000 mid-2027 (giving UA a total of 54 x PzH 2000, which corresponds to three artillery battalions. Thus far, 36 x PzH 2000 have been sent to UA, of which Germany has delivered 25.

German government had already agreed to production and delivery of 18 x RCH 155 to Ukraine in the summer of 2022. In mid-February 2024, the delivery of 18 more RCH 155 wheeled howitzers was then confirmed, with delivery from the end of 2025 to 2027. In mid-2024, the procurement of a third batch of 18 x RCH 155 was announced.
