Yugoimport Nora B-52

The Nora B-52 is Serbia's flagship defense industry achievement — a 155mm/52-caliber self-propelled wheeled howitzer developed by Yugoimport-SDPR that has achieved genuine export success, validating Serbian defense engineering on the international market. The system mounts a long-barrel 155mm gun on an FAP 8x8 truck chassis, combining the firepower of a tracked howitzer with the strategic and operational mobility of a wheeled vehicle. The automated loading system delivers 6 rounds per minute in maximum rate fire with a sustained rate of 2 rounds per minute. Maximum range with standard NATO 155mm projectiles is 41 km, extending to 51 km with base-bleed extended-range rounds, and potentially 67 km with Vulcano precision-guided munitions. The wheeled chassis achieves over 100 km/h on roads enabling rapid displacement after firing — critical for survival against counter-battery radar systems. Serbia operates the Nora B-52 as its primary self-propelled artillery system providing mobile fires support for ground forces. Exports to UAE, Kenya, Bangladesh, Cyprus, and Myanmar demonstrate the system's competitive positioning in the mid-tier defense export market.
