On 11 April 2024, the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) delivered two modernized BPz2 Recovery Vehicles to the Lithuanian Armed Forces, expanding the fleet to four modernized BPz2.

 

The Agency successfully managed the BPz2 Programme modernization. This has enabled the Lithuanian Armed Forces to significantly expand their field capabilities to support the PzH2000 operation, by providing a modern and effective solution to cover a recurrent gap in the operation scenarios. This new solution provides recovery and field support capabilities for vehicles in the weight class that exceeds 50 t.
