Israel | Self-propelled howitzer | 155 mm L/52 | 19 | Replacement for the 19 CAESAR 8x8s donated to Ukraine. [156] Test model is installed on Tatra T815 8×8 although DALO has not yet decided platform [156] [157] Currently, the main piece is a major controversy due to its origin from a blacklisted company (Even being dropped in 2015 in favor of the Caesar platform despite being better in tests) and alleged unfair play in the acquisition with Nexter Systems claiming they were never contacted [158] and Hanwha Group claiming that the delivery timeline for the K9 Thunder was never discussed despite DALO claiming it would take too long. [140] The controversy has led to the defense minister Jacob Elleman being moved to the finance ministry [141] and the department chief being fired. [142] Later evidence has proved that Elbit and DALO had an ongoing lawsuit regarding the 2015 cancelation that was thrown out after Elbit received the new order, the investigation is ongoing.
