In early June 2022, Ukraine and Slovakia signed a contract to supply eight Zuzana 2 self-propelled howitzers through the state joint-stock company Konštrukta-Defence based on a commercial sale agreement.
In August 2022, it was reported that Slovakia sent the first four Zuzana 2 self-propelled howitzers to Ukraine. In addition to the contract for the supply of eight Zuzana 2 howitzers, Konštrukta-Defence will produce 16 more Zuzana 2 howitzers for Ukraine, which will be co-financed by Denmark, Germany, and Norway.
