This contract, awarded in December 2025, will bolster the Army's ability to meet critical operational requirements, particularly for its Armored Brigade Combat Teams (ABCTs). BAE Systems remains committed to the future of the Paladin program, ensuring that Soldiers are equipped with the most mission-ready artillery solutions in even the most challenging terrains or conditions. While being one of the lightest tracked self-propelled howitzer systems on the battlefield, the vehicle is engineered with adaptable chassis and next-generation capabilities.
The platform integrates cutting-edge technology and a modern architecture that incorporates advanced digital fire control systems, known as the "digital backbone." These capabilities provide a significant boost in lethality, survivability and responsiveness, enabling warfighters to deliver precise and effective indirect fire support in a rapidly evolving threat environment.
The M109A7 is produced in York, Pennsylvania; Elgin, Oklahoma; and Anniston, Alabama.
