Pictures of the Swedish 155 mm wheeled self-propelled howitzer "Archer" on the old and new chassis
The former chassis was actually based on the Volvo A30 6x6 dump truck, which gave it high maneuverability in difficult areas. But the new chassis is one of the products of Rheinmetall in collaboration with MAN, called RMMV HX2 with 8x8 configuration and an armored room, which gives the new Archer significant mobility and protection capabilities.
