The agreement allows for the potential supply of up to 500 RCH 155 self-propelled howitzers. Moreover, deliveries under this agreement may be made not only to the Bundeswehr but also to foreign customers. While 500 RCH 155s is an impressive number, the Bundeswehr probably does not need that many at present.
Can you imagine trying to fight against an enemy who has 155mm artillery that can fire on the move operated by crews within an armored hull? How do you even begin to counter that or develop threatening counter artillery battery doctrine?



It is called a gun raid, it is a military tactic that already exists as quite a fleshed out battle concept that relies primarily on a similar shortsightedness to yours in what defenders expect, by the time it is realized a vulnerable asset is near the frontline the artillery system has fulfilled its fire mission and there are now much bigger issues for the defenders to focus on.
