One scale model of the new 152mm self-propelled howitzer 2S35 was unveiled for the first time to the public. At the same time, a new wheeled self-propelled howitzer was unveiled based on a Kamaz 8x8 truck chassis equipped with the same turret as the 2S35 tracked howitzer.

Some few months ago Russia has unveiled a twin-barreled self-propelled howitzer under the name of 2S35, but the project was cancelled.

According to Russian military engineers, the new 2S35 can used high-explosive long-range precision-guided munition with a maximum range of 70 km and high level of accuracy.

The new howitzer could be equipped with the new 2A88 cannon 152mm which is under development. To increase its self-protection, a remote weapon station armed with a 12.7mm machine is mounted on the top of the turret.

Based on our initial analysis of this scale model, the 2S35 seems to use a new tracked chassis, three hatches are located at the front of the chassis. The standard self-propelled howitzer 2S19 of Russian army was based on the T-80 main battle tank. The new 2S35 could use the new universal combat platform "Armata".
