CALA 30/2
Notes: This is the newest Argentine towed howitzer, entering production in 1997. It is of conventional construction, with a split trail and wheels for towing. However, for short movements, the CALA 30/2 may be moved using its auxiliary power unit; this also assists in bringing the gun into action.
Twilight 2000 Notes: This gun does not exist.
