140 euros for the gun, that's a price. Aside the Bundeswehr, are there other users of this gun?

I guess Japan is currently the main foreign user (it's been licenced-built there) :
On a side note, Lucky Model has the Hobby Fan one on "backorder" (at $86.99 )

I seem to recall that originally this was a tri-national design with the users being the British, German and Italian armies.
I think that it was used by the Territorial Army in British service although some Regular units of the Royal Artillery may also have been equipped. I don't believe it was in service for very long.
I think the gun was retrofitted to M109s in Bundeswehr service.

Revell is really missing out on a lot by not doing some of these vehicles.

Bundeswehr, Briish Army, Italian Army, JGSDF and Saudi Arabia
used/use the gun. And yes, the barrel was installed into M109 A3 GE A1 version.
All we need now is a conversion kit for the guns prime mover the MAN 7 ton truck.

The release of the Y-Modelle kit will maybe trigger a Far-East
styrene copy?
What I`ve heard that Revell currently puts it`s money on toy drones.:-((
