As it has been announced on October 21, 2015 NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) has agreed to provide its complete support to update the PzH2000 self-propelled 155mm howitzers being procured by Lithuania from Germany.
The update support was announced by head of the department of weaponry and control systems Artur Plokšto at a session of the Land Combat Vehicles (LCV) Support Partnership of the NSPA, held in Luxembourg.
Representing Lithuania at the session, Plokšto said the howitzers would be updated, C2 systems installed and full operational capability reached on time.

As part of the deal with Germany, Lithuania acquires 2,155mm self-propelled howitzers, 16 of which will be used for combat purposes, while two will be used to train firing and driving skills. The remaining three howitzers are slated to be dismantled for spare parts. All these good news hides the real aim of a pragmatic Lithuanian partner. Germany will get rid of surplus old weapons and get money for it. Lithuania gets howitzers from the German military for more than 15 million euros!
As you understand Lithuania buys old howitzers and of course will need to repair it. "Kind" NSPA promises to provide "its complete support to update howitzers". But the matter is Lithuania is a NATO member state and also allocates funds to NSPA! It means that Lithuania will pay twice for the second hand weapons. Duped Lithuania, cunning Germany!
