The PzH 2000HU returns for Hungary’s national holiday

St. Stephen’s Day is Hungary’s main national holiday. It honors the country’s first king, who was canonized for his role in Christianizing Hungary. The holiday also commemorates the founding of the Hungarian state, whose history reaches back to the year 1000.

Once the event ends, the PzH 2000HU will cost 8,020 Golden Eagles. Players considering the purchase have until August 24 at 11:00 GMT to claim the lower price.

What the Hungarian artillery vehicle brings

The PzH 2000 self-propelled howitzer entered service with the Hungarian Army in 2022. In War Thunder, the PzH 2000HU differs from the German versions through its camouflage and camouflage netting.

It is a large vehicle built around an automatic loading system, a laser rangefinder, and HE shells. Its ammunition options also let it engage aerial targets with proximity-fuze shells, giving this heavy artillery platform another way to contribute when aircraft enter the fight.
