Imagine an artillery system that combines sci-fi aesthetics with groundbreaking technology—while being able to hit targets up to 70 km away. Meet NEMESIS: the latest innovation from General Dynamics European Land Systems (GDELS) and KNDS, recently unveiled at the FEINDEF fair in Madrid.

A Technological Marvel on Tracks

NEMESIS is built on the well-proven ASCOD platform and equipped with KNDS’ fully automatic 155 mm/L52 Artillery Gun Module (AGM). This implies the system can be operated by just two people—or even completely unmanned if desired. The powerful 1100 hp diesel engine and the option of steel or composite rubber tracks ensure that NEMESIS can navigate even the most challenging terrains.

World-Class Precision and Firepower

With a 360° firing sector and the ability to fire shells while on the move, NEMESIS sets new standards for mobility and flexibility. The system also supports MRSI (Multiple Rounds Simultaneous Impact), allowing it to hit a target with multiple shells at once. Depending on the type of ammunition, NEMESIS can reach targets up to 70 km away, putting it at the forefront of modern artillery systems.

Designed for the Modern Battlefield

NEMESIS is not only a technological achievement; it also responds to today’s and tomorrow’s military needs. The high degree of automation reduces crew requirements and enhances safety. Its capability to quickly reposition after firing—known as “Shoot & Scoot”—makes it difficult for the enemy to locate and counter its fire.

Part of a Larger Family

NEMESIS is an evolution of the earlier DONAR system and shares technology with the wheeled PIRANHA AAC, launched in 2024. This family of artillery systems offers both tracked and wheeled solutions that can be tailored to various military needs and operational requirements.

The Future of Artillery is Here

With NEMESIS, GDELS and KNDS have created an artillery system that combines power, precision, and mobility in an unprecedented way. It’s not just an upgrade of existing systems; it’s a step into future warfare, where technology and innovation work hand in hand to ensure battlefield superiority.
