FH-88

The FH-88 or Field Howitzer 88 was the first locally designed howitzer developed for the Singapore Army. It is a 155 mm/39-calibre towed howitzer gun.

Developed by Singapore's Chartered Industries of Singapore starting in 1983, the FH-88 (Field Howitzer 88) was designed to provide the Singapore Armed Forces with a locally produced 155mm howitzer tailored to tropical terrain. The artillery piece officially entered service in 1988, featuring an auxiliary power unit that allowed for self-propelled movement over short distances. While the system has not seen active combat, it has been deployed extensively in major overseas live-fire training operations, such as Exercise Thunder Warrior in New Zealand. Today, the FH-88 is being phased out in favor of newer systems like the FH-2000, but it retains a significant legacy as Singapore's first indigenously developed artillery piece.
