Rheinmetall has received further major orders for the supply of 155-millimeter artillery ammunition. An undisclosed international customer has placed two orders with subsidiary Rheinmetall Denel Munition for the supply of 155-millimeter extended-range artillery ammunition with a total value in the high double-digit millions. The order includes projectiles, propelling charges and fuses.
“We are very grateful for the trust of our business partners and customers in our globally proven extended range ammunition and our technology for long ranges,” says Frank Dirksen, Managing Director of Rheinmetall Denel Munition. “As a system provider, we are constantly working to improve our cutting-edge technologies in order to offer modern armed forces the best possible solutions.”
The latest orders are the result of rapidly increasing international demand triggered by the tense global security situation. Rheinmetall has been increasing its production capacities since 2022 and aims to be able to produce at least 1.1 million 155-millimeter artillery shells per year by 2027.
