Slovakia is negotiating with Ukraine on the purchase of Zuzana artillery.

 The Slovak government is communicating with Ukraine regarding the sale of Zuzana self-propelled artillery units to Ukraine, the Slovak newspaper Niezalezna.pl reported. “Bratislava and Kyiv are discussing the details of the contract for the sale of 16 155-mm Zuzana self-propelled artillery units,” the statement said. It specifies that a howitzer crew consists of 4 soldiers. A Zuzana can hit a target at a distance of up to 39.6 km. The introduction of these kits is not new for Ukrainians, as Ukraine purchased 26 152-mm DANA M2 self-propelled howitzers from the Czech Republic a few years ago. The Zuzana kits themselves are simply an upgraded version of the DANA artillery system, adapted to NATO standards. Last week, Slovakia officially confirmed the delivery of a S-300 air defense system to Ukraine.
