All with Spanish language operational and repair manuals
Thats a nice little haul of SPG's that would be available for sale - even if say only half of them were still operational and OK for sale
And while not as capable as an M109 or M110 they are a heck of a lot better than a handful of old M8 Howitzer Motor Carriages
