The new DANA-M1 CZ include a new, high performance fire control system (FCS) that boosts the combat efficiency of the system and at the same time simplifies its operations. The new developed solution of the FCS is based upon the use of state-of-the-art technologies allowing the DANA-M1 CZ to be integrated into the C4I system.

The DANA-M1 CZ is also equipped with an inertial topographical navigation unit which is mechanically linked to the barrel axis. This allows complicated and time consuming topographical orientation of the gun to be skipped. The inertial topographical navigation unit continuously transfers the current data on the system position and traverse and elevation angles to the ballistic computer.

The chassis is also upgraded which increase the driving properties and manoeuvrability of the DANA-M1 CZ. Several modifications have been made to the cabin, as new seats, independent air conditioning, new blackout lightning system and reverse camera.
